Has anyone heard that any of our players are transfering out?

Elmore and Morrissey are gone. Stafford and Smith graduated. Looks like we had 4 spots to fill and coaches did an excellent job of filling those needs.

Morrissey could be a good player in a "bring it down and set it up" type of offense. Good luck to him. Disappointed Elmore didn't stick. He had a rep as a defensive stopper, certainly something we didn't have last season. |

Wish we had more of a resource concerning UNA athletics. I get kinda tired of picking up the phone or driving to town just to ask about things that should be out in public. |

It's a UNA tradition.

Unfortunately we will see this every year going forward, unless the NCAA decides to implement new rules. While I can't blame a kid that is unhappy for whatever reason for looking for a new school, it definitely stinks for the fans. None of us want to see "free agency".
At least in football and basketball, developing depth from year to year could get a lot tougher if backups are constantly on the move for greener pastures.

There should be strict restrictions on how a transfer comes about. And honestly, on the same token, a coach should be held to a contract, I would go as far to say that a salary cap should be in forced for coaches in the NCAA. That would make it harder for coaches to just up and leave. |

That would make it harder for coaches to just up and leave. The NCAA could have kept this from happening, or at least kept it from being so bad, if they would’ve just stuck to their own rules. But when kids are suddenly getting waivers for the flimsiest of reasons, and being allowed to go to another school with immediate eligibility, then why not go somewhere that will provide a better opportunity for playing time? It’s ridiculous. While I don’t think a kid should be held hostage, there was nothing inherently wrong with forcing them to sit out a season. I’m not sure what to do about coaches. I’m not sure a salary cap is the answer, but I don’t have a good one myself. |

Welcome to the millennial generation. As an educator, I deal with them every day and see how absolutely differently their mind works than generation X which I am a member of. I was reading an article the other day about how to deal with them in the workplace, and it was talking about how employers are having to give “lateral promotions” to retain them.... In other words... They get hired and after 8 months to a year, they expect a raise or promotion or both. If they don’t get that, then they start looking elsewhere and will leave. The article was talking about changing up their responsibilities and basically calling it a promotion so they feel they are constantly “moving forward.” They have less loyalty to a company (or school) that invests in them and are way more likely to be looking around all the time for a better situation. (This of course doesn’t apply to everyone, as there are always exceptions, but it is a trend that the people who study this sort of thing have seen, and I have seen it played out in my own dealings with students on a high school level.

I am also a Gen Xer, I am a proponent that current generational problems are a direct result of the teaching of the previous 2 generations. That said, is it our fault that the Millenials are less loyal, more about how they feel now than worrying about the outcome, or the all about me attitude? Will the next generation be better or worse? |

I got out of retail management in 2003. Not only did I manage, I did all the work. If you tried to talk the infants into doing their jobs, you were a racist. If you told them they couldn't wear a big chunk of metal in their tongue at the cash register, they quit. Corporate says hire and fire till you get good ones. Trouble was, they were as sorry or worse than the ones we fired. I sure hope mass automation works. If not, this once great nation will grind to a halt in 15 years. |
