I wonder how many coaches agree with this sentiment.
Perhaps if players had the same degree of contractual freedom that coaches do, you might see transfers moving for the same reason.

Most times coaches move after a successful run while most times transfers move because of lack of success. https://t.co/HCbYfbhuYB

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
Spin for sure since they can not move on because they are better and most have trouble moving on if they don’t get playing time.

Unless you count going pro early.

Because we have never, ever heard a coach bitch about a Grad Transfer going to a better program due to success at a lesser program.

Actually, that’s not quite true.

Seth Greenberg, of course, was fired as head coach at Virginia Tech after leading the Hokies to just one NCAA Tournament appearance and five NIT appearances, missing postseason play altogether twice. In more than 20 years of coaching, he reached the NCAAs three times.
Just a little perspective on losers and success and speaking negatively about players who are trying to improve their lot in their athletic careers.

Most coaches who move receive a substantial raise in pay, and players who transfer to play elsewhere also get a substantial pay raise…..wait…..

Auburn got theirs with $Cam … I would have hated to see $Cam running Corch’s offense. He would have made Corch take back everything he had to say about the GPOOE.

We were actually lucky $Cam stole that laptop and got caught. He would have taken over after the GPOOE and FU likely would have won 2 more BCSNCGs.
