We always say this, but honestly there’s no way a coach at any school (including ours) could tell a recruit he has to go

Your last two sentences are contradictory.

No they’re not. My opinion (or any opinion actually) is not what makes your argument valid or invalid.

So you were saying that your view per se does not establish a valid argument?

Any other coach COULD pitch it as beneficial to player development

This is the truth. And the real test isn’t “why don’t they have all their players leave”. It’s “why do they try to keep

He was at Hawaii before that and also was hired by Ed Lamb at SUU before that

His career never took off though until he coached at utah state. Hence why I said jump started
