It is an interesting position. You cannot change culture in a day so you have to congratulate the kid.

Hot take: kids leaving LSU for the NFL is not bad.
Is it more prevalent at LSU than at other schools? The data says that it is. So what does that mean? It means you account for that in your recruiting and roster management. You know that you're only going to get 3 years from most of the top talent that you want on the team, so recruit their replacements accordingly. Same thing Coach K does at Duke with basketball or Cal at Kentucky. They know what they're getting from guys that are planning to go to the NBA after a year or two. They recruit the replacements and keep trucking. LSU has done pretty well at that, but there are some positions where we have struggled more than others.

We used to have juniors leave all the time. We never had junior night and those kids at least finished season with their team. you can't make a kid be committed but you dont have to honor quitting either. Just let him go. Maybe congratulate him when he's drafted. what are you congratulating right now?
