Re: Players Gone From 2018 Team
Why is Dante Sparaco transferring? I thought he was going to be a solid player for us over the next few seasons.

Re: Players Gone From 2018 Team
To me, he is a kid who is never happy. Maybe he thinks he is better than he is. He transferred schools in high school and now his 2nd college transfer in 2 years. Not a team player in my opinion.The Butcher wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 9:47 amWhy is Dante Sparaco transferring? I thought he was going to be a solid player for us over the next few seasons.

Re: Players Gone From 2018 Team
As I understand it was denied. I think any player who had a season in which they played 4 games or less previous to the new redshirt rule applied to have that year redshirted but I believe it was denied across the board.

Blake Allred - FB. Transferred to MT Tech. May get an opportunity for more playing time and a shot at LB...where he starred in high school.Catsrgrood wrote: ↑Mon Jan 28, 2019 10:36 pmA quick breakdown of players that have moved on, one way or another, from last years team.

Re: Players Gone From 2018 Team
Notice how I said in my opinion. I dont assume to know why he is transferring but one has to wonder about 3-4 transfers between high school and colleges. I always laugh at keyboard rangers who talk ****** behind anonymity.FTG247365 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 10:58 amSounds like you know him personally.

Re: Players Gone From 2018 Team
How is that talking ******? I stated facts then offered my opinion on those facts. What would you say about a player who has left his teams 3-4 times in as many years? As I said, I dont assume to know why he keeps transferring. My opinion was a generalization on players that transfer multiple times. He just happens to be the subject matter at this point. Also, I would have no problem saying what I said directly to him or anyone. Maybe he clarifies the situation.coachouert wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 11:46 amYou mean like you did in your post above??Cat4LifeHouseDivided wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 11:43 amNotice how I said in my opinion.

The statements associated with the above bolded and underlined words are all assumptions you have made.Cat4LifeHouseDivided wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 9:52 amTo me, he is a kid who is never happy.

If your assumptions came from your a$$ they probably stink as bad as everything else that comes from there does.
That's how and why it looks like you're talking ****.
If you're looking for someone with a little authority, I'm your man. I have as little as anyone!

Re: Players Gone From 2018 Team
An opinion is just that. Its not an assumption on why he is transferring. I will give that I could have generalized the statements a little more.Joe Bobcat wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 12:42 pmThe statements associated with the above bolded and underlined words are all assumptions you have made.Cat4LifeHouseDivided wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 9:52 amTo me, he is a kid who is never happy.

Re: Players Gone From 2018 Team
Well I have no idea how big of a person your are, but it might be entertaining to see you walk up to him and tell him to his face he's not a team player LOL!Cat4LifeHouseDivided wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 11:52 amHow is that talking ******?

Re: Players Gone From 2018 Team
Fair enough...and just for reference: 6'2", 275 lbs, former hockey player albeit out of shape at this point in my life. As I said, he may have good reason. All the transferring just leaves too many questions for me. I am in my mid 30s and was taught not to quit teams. I get fit, rules, coaches leaving but there seems to be a pattern here.catatac wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 1:20 pmWell I have no idea how big of a person your are, but it might be entertaining to see you walk up to him and tell him to his face he's not a team player LOL!Cat4LifeHouseDivided wrote: ↑Tue Jan 29, 2019 11:52 amHow is that talking ******?

Re: Players Gone From 2018 Team
No worries Cat4Life. I never got the impression that DS was a prima donna or anything like that but who knows. Maybe he's dealing with depression or something along those lines, I'd sincerely hope we're all a bit more sensitive to that possibility.
Great time to be a BOBCAT!

Re: Players Gone From 2018 Team
That may be....could be along the lines of a post on the Griz tragedy thread. I realize as a competitive person, you strive to be the best. The pressure is likely very high. I have never met the kid so as I said I cant speak to the reasons. I hope he finds what he's chasing.
