Hard to imagine the team that SC could have had if all these kids that have transferred over the last couple years would have just stayed there. May, Sartin-Sloan, Dingess... may be others I've missed off the top of my head. What a team that would have been with James and the other players SC has currently.

Leads me to wonder what prompts these kids to transfer to begin with, do other schools/coaches make promises or is it just parents getting mad at someone and making the move? Serious question... I just don't understand it.

You forgot the Colegrove kid and you are right about a solid team.

The kids from WV come across the Kermit bridge so they can play high school ball while in middle school, I think WV limits them to just 4 years. There have been a couple of great players stay at SC like BJ Moore and Chase Parsley.

Each player that left had their own reasons, some left because their parents couldn’t get along with another parent and the coach hooked their wagon to the wrong horse. Some left so be on a team that might have a better chance to win the region and make it to the Big Show in Lexington. But it was the parents ego in most cases.

Then Wesley and Caleb Hager left when the MC superintendent Steve Meadows tried to screw their dad Shawn Hager. Then MC got a new school board with “Balls” and Meadows got the axe, but not before he screwed everything up including a few teachers while superintendent.

I don’t think it’s coaches recruiting good players but why would they tell them players not to transfer, every coach wants talented players to coach.

The bottom line IMO, it’s the parents.....
