SoCon Transfers

YUCK!!

I grew up in the HEART of College Basketball when NC State, UNC, and Maryland were competing for the NCAA National Championship every year & had AMAZING players that I had the privilege & pleasure to watch play for 4 years...at the same school. I watched them develop as Players and grow from being a boy (like me...at the time) when they arrived into young men. There really wasn’t much I loved more than College Basketball in those days. I lived & died on the outcomes of those games every week & I knew the Players that were waiting in the wings and ready to step into key roles when the Players ahead of them...those now transformed young men, moved on to their next endeavors.

Today, I barely watch March Madness and I don’t follow the regular season AT ALL. I prefer watching College Women’s Basketball because I can see that they are TEAMS & Teammates. I would say that I am, at the very most, indifferent to Men’s College Basketball. I would almost go as far as to say that I HATE it...but I think that would imply I have lost hope that the great love of my youth has been lost forever.

But...I do have hope. I understand that the NBA is going to eliminate the stupid rule that led to the even stupider 1-and-done Players (AKA, PretendStudent Athletes). That gives me hope and almost excites me. Now, how is this CRAZY 1/2 the Team transfers every year going to be put to a stop?

Until that junk ends, I’ll stick to watching the Ladies & pining over my great lost love.
