You want to know what kills me watching these SEC guys get drafted in the third round tonight? It's not the talent, those boys can play. It's the way we used to build a roster back in the 1990s when Coach would drive his own car to a kid's house in New Hampshire and sit in the living room with the parents for three hours. No NIL package, no portal escape hatch, just a handshake and a promise that if you worked hard you'd earn your spot. We had a kid from my hometown in 1994 who turned down a partial scholarship to a MAC school because he wanted to be part of what we were building at Bentley. Stayed all four years, started three, and to this day he says it was the best decision he ever made. Now these kids are committing to the highest bidder and transferring the second they don't start as a true freshman. The old way built character, not just a paycheck.
