We seem to be getting more talent to sign but we’re also losing more talent due to unrealistic expectations of players and what seems to be a lack of commitment and work ethic. Maybe it’s just the way things are today and the portal exacerbates the problem but dang, figure some of these guys out before they’re on campus wasting our time and resources. I think we’re getting better athletes but maybe more marginal students. Or Lincoln sucks when your not winning. Quote Link to comment

They aint come here to play school. But it would be nice if they stuck around and played the foosball. I would guess that Lincoln is not nearly as bad as your typical SEC school when it comes to not winning. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Decked Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Expect to see Branson Yager in the portal soon apparently. Reach but cost us a scholarship. 1 Quote Link to comment

Baton Rouge is an arm pit, but it’s warm Gainesville is close to beaches and it’s warm Tuscaloosa is, I’m actually not sure, but it’s warm Auburn the same Knoxville is nice, and has that nice arid mountain climate Atlanta is an arm put, but it big and warm College Station is Hicksville, but warm Arkansas, sucks. Everyone hates it South Carolina, warm with beaches close The Mississippi’s, warm and smooth southern it’s nicer to not win when the girls don’t wear clothes 1 Quote Link to comment

Imagine how blistering hot most of their games are. Meanwhile, in reality, very few games in Lincoln are extremely cold. 3 2 Quote Link to comment

OK, kids want to be able to transfer much easier and move from program to program. Fine, if you want go that route, go for it. But, that doesn't change how coaches and programs view a kid that does that. This is no different than in the real world when looking for a job. Fine, switch jobs if you want to. But, when someone applies for a job and on their resume it's clear they have jumped from job to job, that's a pretty big red flag. Quote Link to comment

Without derailing the thread too much, it depends on the industry. For some jobs, a shaky work history is definitely a red flag, for others (like tech for instance) it's pretty acceptable to jump around quite a bit. Like everything, it ultimately boils down to how talented your are. 3 1 Quote Link to comment
