[Pulp Fiction]

Something that I haven't seen brought up in this thread or the JC thread......

Before I was in school, during school and now being out of school, I've heard parents and kids on both sides say they are transferring for one reason or another. Mainly because they have gotten upset or mad at somebody associated with the team or school or something didn't go according to their plans..... and they are wanting somebody to beg them to stay and tell them how valuable they are to the team.

It's like transferring from one to the other is the ultimate 'Up Yours' to their former school.
Most of the time, if a player transfers to a school in the same city, their heart & head wasn't in the right place anyways. Wish them well, but at least you aren't playing with kids who don't want to be out their giving their 110%. I've heard this from just about every coach I know..... 'If you don't want to run out to your spot on the field, somebody will."


Belfry & Pikeville are proof that two 15th region teams from the same county can have success in the same sport. Not sure how many players from Pikeville started at Belfry and Vise Versa. but it can be done. Transfers, recruits.... whatever term you want to use.... when a player does leave a team, it just means the current players have to step their game up to take up the slack.
