Sorry to hear that, but running your mouth now doesn’t have the weight it would if you were here last year.
I saw that too, and I can appreciate what he's saying. But then again, its the same issue freshmen football players all over the country are dealing with. Are other teams having this happen to them?
Apparently 121 players across the nation have entered the transfer portal over the last 8 days. This is going to be the trend in the years to come. When a team isn’t doing well, players are going to leave before the season ends. Welcome to the new normal.
According to TD, Gilbert’s mom is coming to stay in BR for some time. O also said that Gilbert only mentioned opting out this year; he did not say transfer, although it could’ve been left silent.
That is one problem with recruiting kids from across the country these days. There is no loyalty not that there is now anyways. Look at the players Bama has been able to turn to go there simply by spreading the cash. New cars and cash over loyalty to your State. We are Recruiting alot of me first players, Look at Boutte throwing the ball down on 1 yard line. Look at Ole Miss player getting down like a dog and costing them game last year. If you recruit selfish players dont be surprised when they turn on you. I dont care how good they are. I think you are going to see rule changes on how easy it is to change teams. Back to the 1 year sit out.
