Well if Wazzu loses half their team and their QB doesn’t play while most of our guys do and we absolute annihilate them - McCord could break some more records , we get an orange fest on TV etc etc etc…

was this a reference to barnes or in general?

General. He was complementary of him.

 

[OburgOrange]

Keeping it real. Oof!

I don't think that's being unreasonable to want players to tell the coaches. It's part of being an adult.

I get the feeling the coaches knew about Barnes.
Fran even alluded to a guy who was "homesick" - so maybe that's Mr Barnes?

But if not, and he was indeed a 'snake' about this, then...

 

[GoSU96]

Ouch

 

[Orangezoo]

I mean it would be great to try and reverse that trend and put value back into these games. I also understand kids not wanting to risk it too.

[orangepassion]

There still trying to get him an extra year…(definitely will not happen)

While Cam McCormick plays a 9th year this year.

 

[GoSU96]

Ouch

If our current offense remains in tact we don’t need them to opt out …. we’re going for 50 ….. wait…….. IMO

 

[Orangezoo]

Whoa.. “a lot”…

 

[Doc5120]

I absolutely love this!

I have thought in the bac k of my mind that our two DL that were “out for the season” weren’t injured.

I wonder if they’re portal bound.

Certainly sounds like some people are being told to leave.

I’ll say something really idiotic here . I think players should play in the bowl game. Chances of a career affecting injury are small. Calculated risk . I know , I’ve hit the egg nog early !

The real problem are the agents. They get in these kids heads, their families heads and of course look deep into how padded their pockets will be and a lot of these type of situations end up with the kids leaving. Most of them are just scumbags. Look at devitos agent with his 15 minutes of fame.

Interesting comment reminded me of this

Hmmm that would make a lot of sense

Well, this is either Marcellus Barnes or Brady Denaburg. They are the only transfers as everyone seems to be fine with Sparrow.
We counted on Brady for our kickoffs so I could understand if coach was pissed about this if no one told him.

He clearly knows of others going , he may be referring to them.

 

[Irishsecra1]

Well I dare say that anyone who opts out of this bowl game is going to be made to feel like crap by coach.
He is going to be sure to let them know he let the team down, the university down and the fans down.
I would frankly be shocked if they are even on the bowl trip after this response.
Coach is focused on whats best for the S.

 

[Irishsecra1]

But if he already knows before they enter the portal, then they didnt act like snakes.
Sigh - it has to be someone important to the teams success to piss him off like this.
