just because Tyler Moore was going to leave doesnt mean it is more common than i think. Tyler Moore also felt he was "done wrong" by PM regarding playing time.

Robertson has played a ton through 3 years when he really hasnt warranted it before this year. PM has made it a point to get Greg's bat in the lineup despite Greg being below average at every position he has played. Coach really hasn't done them wrong in terms of playing time like he did with Tyler Moore.

I think there are other players that didnt necessarily like PM, and they left, but it was more in terms of playing time than outright hatred for the coach. That happens though when you recruit as many great players as LSU does. Im not even a huge PM fan, but i dont believe we have players ready to just leave despite their best interests.

I mena Robertson has a hot gf in baton rouge, he can start at SS for one of the best college programs in the nation next year, play with his best friends, but that he is going to go ride busses in the minors when his pro prospects are marginal at best? And you are telling me you know that right now? Sorry, not buying it

21 year-olds often don't have the wisdom to put things like that in perspective.

They tend to be impulsive and eager to move on to the next stage in adult life, even when it is not ideal for them.

I'm not seeing where you dont see that Kramer does have pro prospect abilities. He's got above average field & run, solid arm and is looking like he can hit for average. there have been many drafted and succeeded with much less. No he doesnt have much pop, but neither do most middle infielders not named Carlos Correa or Jason Kipnis... He will be drafted to play second base and he will succeed as a fielder and if he can hit around .280 he has a chance to make it far. I wont bore you with the minor leaguers who have made it despite having little to no tools. Which by the way you are vastly over exaggerating his lack of... he's the starting shortstop at LSU, already making him better than a quarter of the infielders toiling in the minors.
