It's sad that it has to be done that way to keep a freshman or sophomore from leaving. These kids are so shortsighted to not realize that you're just jumping from one spot where there is competition to another spot where there is competition. But in the second place, you're behind the learning curve and will have to sit for a year.

Have some fricking patience and improve your game.

The way prep leagues and recruiting are now, almost every kid who gets a scholarship to a major program believes (and is probably told by many coaches) that they're the best and the kids don't have the maturity to really look at themselves and realize they need to improve for the college game. Similar to how so many kids jump early and don't get drafted until like the 6th or 7th round if they get drafted at all. Prime example, Malachi Dupre.


ETA: You look at recruiting back in the day when you had guys like Archie Manning and what not and they were basically treated/worked like shite until they proved they were otherwise and they all acted like it was the greatest blessing on earth to just get a chance to make the team.
