Coaching changes, new offers, etc. A lot of stuff changes around college football programs in those two months.


Easy solution. Don't commit to a coach, commit to a SCHOOL.

Besides, that crap goes on any way. Coaches leaving after the February signing period. So in my mind, that's a lame excuse not to have it.

There were nearly 20 coaching changes announced after the ink was dry on national letters of intent, including the retirement of longtime TCU defensive coordinator Dick Bumpas.

Completely unrealistic. Assistant coaches are professional salesmen who intentionally make their relationship with the prospect the deciding factor. It increases their value to the schools come contract time or for new opportunities. They also have a huge impact on the day to day lives of college football players, usually even more than head coaches.

So that's out. What about the new offer part? Every year there are dozens of prospects who find better opportunities in January and February. Are they just SOL?

That's not realistic. These kids choose programs based on the coaching staff and the likelihood they can help them get to their next goal.

always has and always will be a lame as hell excuse to be able to frick kids over.

you do realize a large percentage of regular people also chooses universities based off of specific teachers and programs don't you?

should every kid with an academic scholarship be trapped at a school w/transfer restrictions if that teacher or program gets shut down?

if I go to learn under a teacher and they leave should I be forced to sit out of that field of study for a year if I transfer?
