And it's like they were like the meat of the team or the glue of the team. And they don't even have that anymore because they had to cut the roster down. They got to pay all these guys. And that's sad to me.

I really don't think they even take walk-ons. I think it's a – The death of the walk-on athletes.

Yeah. It is sad, man. Oh, it is. It definitely takes away a lot of the heart of it. Well, dude, also, I just had such an awesome, positive experience being in the locker room for four years with the same guys, going through it. You have these big aspirational dreams you're going to make to see the field. Yeah. Never see the field. But I had a great time. And that doesn't happen anymore.

Not only because there's not walk-ons, but also because why would you cultivate a backup if you're the coach? If he's just about to transfer on your ass as soon as the season's over. Your starter's probably going to transfer. These guys are playing on a different team every year. Sometimes two teams per year. So, like, there's no country. There's no locker room vibe.

They're all just, like, trying to get the cash. There has to be a way. People are acting like, well, we had it better back then, and now it's, like, totally destroyed. It's like, is there no creative problem solving to figure out how we can get these guys some cash? And also, like, is there no middle ground here that we can work with? Like, can we just, okay, you have to stay. You can sit out.

The argument has always been you can't transfer. Yeah. And then you have to sit out a year. That's how it used to be. Now you can transfer and play immediately. I think you should have to sit out a year. Yeah, because that'll hold them off. That's how it used to be.

Yeah. And then the argument against it was, well, coaches can just leave, and then you're left with a coach that you didn't really sign up to play for. Well, then make an exception. And if that's a coach leaves, then you can go. Then you can do it.

Or when they graduate or when they're done at college. But there just has to be a way, and it does. Sports fans, I mean, I grew up a Tennessee football fan. SEC football, there's no fans like that. Because in the NFL, you can't play for the team or go to the team. In college, you can go to that school. You can... Like, if you're a fan, you went to the school. Yeah. You can't go to the Packers.
