I respect his decision.
The losers in this situation are the players, mainly because of the stupid NCAA rules.
"Under NCAA rules, a player who transfers from one Division I program to another must redshirt a season, meaning he cannot play for a year after switching schools."
This is especially sad for the likes of Comer (The nice PG) and Bernard Thompson (who lit it up at the tourny) who have lost the coach that they originally signed on to play for.
Now, if they want to transfer they have to sit out a year? Or is there some provision allowing them to transfer without redshirting (I know you can transfer without red-shirting if your team is banned from post-season play but what about coaching changes?)
