Yeah, I understand but that has happened at a lot of the top five programs. Look at Penn St., Michigan, and OkieSt.
Penn State got Mesenbrink and clearly had Facundo and Barraclough there. Both who showed a loyalty to the program and could easily start at any program. They also brought in Greg K when they had Seth Nevills. In which both Barraclough and Nevills both eventually transferred out. I feel like Beard transferring out was a little different because it is said that Max Dean came to PennSt. Without being recruited. Also, they brought in Aaron N. And Bernie. Some can argues the staff’s loyalty as well.
Michigan brought in 5 transfers last year. DeAugustino, Cannon, Gomez, Griffith, and Davidson. They had room guys who could fill those voids. Fidel Mayora could’ve filled 149 and he has been extremely loyal to the Wolverines and they brought in Gomez second semester. They also had a slew of people who could man 125-141 and brought those same transfers. Michigan has had a few people transfer out last year such as Lamer and Kurt Mchenry…You can argue the loyalty of the staff here as well.
Same with Okie St (not going to write a big passage about this as well).
Everyone is playing the same game. The narrative changes based off of the university lol; but we can’t act like other universities are not doing the same. Of course loyalty is something to be questioned but it seems like a lot of bigger universities will put out the best of the product even if that means they will get transfers.
