Flynn obviously.

But how about Carnell Stewart. Stuck back in the pack on DL. Moved to OL and started at RT in '07 for arguably the third best offense and won a natty as well.

Unfortunately, there are too many today who can't "wait their turn"!

If the transfer portal was a thing in 2006, Flynn would've been gone, especially after his Peach Bowl performance.

Spare me the "kids these days" bullshite. It's the system that's in place and players are, rightfully, taking advantage of it.

Different times. There is now open money involved.

Modern day has no loyalty to anything but a dollar. Don’t even know what’s wrong with that. The whole culture is changing.

You think only recently that loyalty was to anything but the dollar?

Did you not take a history class at any level of school?

STFU everything was better before - it was the players’ own faults that they didn’t take advantage of their free educations/training/tutoring/networking.

Flynn, Hester, Dorsey, Steltz, Doucet, Pittman, Jackson, Zinger, Stewart, Fisher, Cole, Arnold, Highsmith, Sanders, Jordan GOAT senior class

Lol wut?

Who said they didn't take advantage of that? But why do you hate them for wanting more money or more playing time somewhere else?

You only have 4 years, you have to maximize it.

I know.

Those that wait are dinosaurs. Which endears those who did all the more.

Yeah Broski loyalty has long been other than the dollar. I’m not going into history class to educate you on it. You want to defend college kids getting a free education on a scholarship fine, but don’t act like there haven’t been countless acts of loyalty to said school when a transfer was easy. Add money and the act gets becomes money related

Joseph Addai or Ron Brooks always come to mind as guys who made it work.

frick Jayden Daniels, right?

Joe Burrow too for that matter, where was his loyalty to Ohio State? And he transferred before the NIL era.

It’s a little different to graduate and still not get a shot than one-and-done look for another spot.

What does graduating in three years have anything to do with loyalty to a school?

If he was really loyal, he would've used up all his eligibility, right?

Hanging around for three years is more loyalty than one, you can’t be that obtuse.
