Yeah, I get it...it still seems wrong that a coach can sit there and tell the kid and parents "Nope. I am not leaving", the kid signs to play for that coach - and again, it's the coaching staff who recruits and convinces the kid to come and play for them - and then when the coach leaves, the kid is stuck...who knows if the new Kansas coach will have the same coaching style, personality traits, game plans, etc., that attracteed that kid to play for the leaving coach...if the coach can break his/her contract and leave, why can't the players?
