Recruiting on someone else's dime and actively torpedoing a program...

Cannot possibly be seen in the same light as simply deciding another school might be better for your situation.

Every single time (without knowingnthe circumstances of the move) the kids are painted as selfish, impatient, and apparently sometimes too dumb to stay at their current school

Just because they felt another situation would be better for their goals.

I dare you to find similar outrage when Coach Jackson left for a different opportunity last offseason

What are Cone and Bam seeking that they can't get @ VT with Mike Young? -- vtox1 03/25/2021 3:18PM

Probably the exact same number who had NBA ability ** -- King of Hokies 03/25/2021 5:19PM

Players don't look it like that -- 1980VT 03/25/2021 5:20PM

It's also about being able to showcase their talents for the next level ** -- 1980VT 03/25/2021 5:24PM

Bamisile was very honest that it was about playing time. -- Will Stewart

Guessing current and expected playing-time (w/ incoming transfers) ** -- VT757to276 03/25/2021 4:43PM

Playing time? ** -- hoosnowahokie 03/25/2021 4:08PM

IMHO for Cone it was being defended by ACC level defenders -- VTCALS72 03/25/2021 4:08PM

Only so many minutes to go around -- Bmackattack 03/25/2021 3:52PM

Hm, academically 2 of the smartest players on the team. -- hokieton 03/25/2021 3:49PM

Cone & Bamisile are excellent students, can we stop trying to impugn them? ** -- GCHokie34 03/25/2021 3:48PM

Don’t see it as impugning them at all. Fans do have the right to -- uber hokie 03/25/2021 4:39PM

Yet fans do not typically have a clue about the factors in the decision -- NMB Hokie 03/27/2021 11:45AM

Strange comparison to pro sports, since college kids never stayed more than -- JLuge76 03/26/2021 08:27AM

I dont see the same outrage with coaches leaving... -- GCHokie34 03/25/2021 4:44PM

Hmm..you must not have been here long. Wait....except you have. ** -- vatechcowpatty 03/25/2021 9:04PM

You forgot the reaction this board had regarding Buzz leaving and his aTm -- HokieBrazil 03/25/2021 4:54PM

Way more sentiment that coaches are professionals and can leave whenever -- NokieHokie 03/25/2021 5:03PM

I'm scouring boards and not seeing the outrage you refer to -- vtfin91 03/25/2021 4:52PM

I mean...the opening post of this thread outwardly asks... -- GCHokie34 03/25/2021 4:55PM

Frank Beamer used to say, "they are good players but better people" -- VTCALS72 03/25/2021 4:12PM

Thank you ** -- hokieton 03/25/2021 3:49PM

A fresh start? Take advantage of the ncaa rules why you can -- kingofcassell 03/25/2021 3:38PM

Garland became a better player when he got more time -- lchoro 03/25/2021 3:36PM

Likely want to start and play 30+ mins a game ** -- BleedinOandM 03/25/2021 3:23PM

Or simply a path to a bigger role... -- GCHokie34 03/25/2021 3:31PM

Well, If Bam got the defense down I think he could at VT he can play 2/3 -- vtox1 03/25/2021 3:29PM
