I am going to give you another reason. When i was going thru school and played a sport you worked hard at trying to gain a spot or playing time. If you lost your rotation spot you worked twice as hard to get it back. American young kids these days dont want to do that. They are spoiled, pampered. They want instant gratification. If they dont get the playing time they want they leave. I have seen it first hand at the lower level programs. In one program the Co-captain of the team, 6'5", leading scorer from year before quit the team 2 exhibition games into the season. Why? He said he wasn't getting the ball enough. Not the team wasn't getting the ball. He wasn't. What a team player!!Originally posted by AZ BU Fan View PostComment

This is a great example of anecdotal evidence. I caution everyone from individual handpicked scenarios being extrapolated across an entire generation of people.Originally posted by bradleyfan124 View Post

Another young MVC player who impressed me this season will be transferring. Valparaiso forward Jacob Ognacevic has entered the transfer portal.
The 6'8" freshman forward from Sheboygan, WI, played in 28 games, averaged 6.3 ppg in 12.9 minutes per game. He shot 54.5% overall, and an impressive 51.7% from three.

After re-reading my comment I wish to clarify it more. I am sure the total population of players are hard working and dont quit. The sample of Transfers are a small percent of the total population. The example was given as a reason why some players in this small population transfer. There are a number of reasons why players transfer but i believe a majority transfer because they want instant gratification and it is trending upwards. I have seen several examples of this behavior. And I point to the transfer list generally 10 years ago there were maybe 10 kids on the transfer list. Now there are pre-covid transfer list hitting around 500. Da Coach could give us better statistics on that.Originally posted by bradleyfan124 View PostComment

The NCAA is vastly different today than it was 10, 20, 30 years ago. They are very friendly to kids transferring out. 10 years ago, Bradley had to fight tooth and nail to get players transferred in and eligible. The scenario has changed in the last 10 years. 500 kids transfer these days because the NCAA makes it incredibly easy compared to past decades.I point to the transfer list generally 10 years ago there were maybe 10 kids on the transfer list. Now there are pre-covid transfer list hitting around 500.
Had the NCAA been this friendly as it is today 10 years ago, or 20 years ago, or 30 years ago I guarantee you'd have lots of transfers. Its all about money today. And it was about money back in the day. The difference is how blatantly open the NCAA is about it these days. It has nothing to do with "back in my day" or "kids these days".Comment

Yes! The NCAA has made it easier for the players to transferComment

Another one that surprises me a little.... UNI's Noah Carter has put his name into the Transfer Portal. Carter is a sophomore at UNI, and was a key player for them this past season after playing little his freshman season. He is from Dubuque, Iowa, and he averaged 11.2 ppg and 5.7 rpg this season

If he does transfer, and players can always pull out of the transfer portal and return to their school, this would be a blow to UNI for next season.Comment
