catching22 posted:If a player does what he needs to do, he won't have to transfer. That includes trying to walk onto a program where your skills don't match the program. The biggest reason IMO is why players transfer.
This is a ridiculous statement. Have you held the same JOB for your entire career? If not, is it because you didn't do what you needed to do? Is every failed dating relationship, marriage, career because YOU didn't do what you needed to do? Of course not. Coaches suck sometimes; they lie; they leave; kids get hurt; kids get better; people change their minds. There are dozens of solid reasons to transfer that are not failing to do what you need to do.
Doing what you have to do would include going to class, showing up on time for workouts, practice, individual instruction, being a good teammate, etc. I have said that here often.
It doesnt include not liking the coach, being homesick, getting hurt, changing your mind, etc.
