If you are interested, Ole Miss' starting QB just got knocked out of the game. Sanders is in now. UGA is mauling them.
Interesting... I hadn't considered the academic strings attached with college athletics in a while since all the NIL + transfer stuff came about. I guess the NCAA still has some power.
You do realize that if one’s douchey type actions are revealed they may be excluded from future adulation? Right?There’s genuinely no reason to act weird when a player transfers out.
You do realize players transfer in to right?
Tay Martin, Allen Bowman, Jaylen Warren. Leon Johnson III,
The portal gives us an opportunity to upgrade a position.
You do realize that scholarships are only one year commitments, and committing to a school doesn’t make a player the school’s property. Right?
Scholarship students have always been available to schools that may be a better fit; Why treat athletes weird?
Traber played softball?You do realize that if one’s douchey type actions are revealed they may be excluded from future adulation? Right?
You do realize trying to tear down a team by recruiting away from said team will result in negative opinions and vitriol? Right?
No matter your former status of greatness if you try to embarrass and/or denigrate the university this will result in lots of middle phalanges being pointed in the direction of the former great? Right?
You realize that defending such offensive creatures will result in the same kind of FU behavior towards the defending “fan”, “voice of reason, “level headed message board poster”, or however one would view themselves trying to justify traitorous individuals that seek to harm the university and its programs?
In other words don’t post how we should still love them on a message board of obviously Poke fans that have no pity on a guy that tried to wreck the football program. No excuse for his selfish behavior on the way out. The same goes for the ineffective defensive end and the washed up softball pitcher.
Agreed. His departure antics point to some personality flaws that won't serve him well going forward in life. Maybe he'll grow out of those and have a great post-football career. I hope he does.I wish Spencer well. I just wish he would've exited more gracefully. The way he left really changed the way he'll be remembered here.
I don't blame a kid for tryna grab the cash with both hands and make a stack. Cream get the money, dolla dolla bill y'all. But don't say or do negative shit on the way out and for gawd's sake don't go 77 miles to the south. If you do either of those things and especially the latter you become the enemy and we instantly hate you and that is all.n other words don’t post how we should still love them on a message board of obviously Poke fans that have no pity on a guy that tried to wreck the football program.

There are literally hundreds of posts that are true.I'm not familiar with the way he left, so I don't have an opinion on that.
I'll try to look at it through SS point-of-view:
There was a mass exodus before Sanders left Stillwater. The same members who played for the Big 12 championship.
Sanders knew he has no chance of playing in the NFL. I'm sure he received much more through NIL than in Stillwater. And so he took what he could get, knowing his career is nearly over.
I'm not sure why people (all fan bases) get so upset over transferring, especially in an era that is all about transferring.
I, for one, despise everything college football has become. But if a player believes transferring will better their situation, I'm not going to judge that player. It's not my place to. And I'm most certainly not going to judge a person over speculation. Unless someone can prove Spencer has some sort of flaw in his character, which evidence may exist, it's not right to do so.
