I know a few coaches have promised a recruit a start and not follow through...and i know usually there WE takes a big hit...But my question is has a recruit ever STAYED with a team(not transer) after the season was over? Or do they all leave?

the WE hit can make the player really limited in future development unless he was either really high WE (so the loss doesn't lower him into un-improvable territory) or it was really low (and he wasn't going to improve anyway, meaning you recruited him for his current ability - in which case you'd have probably played/started him...) As a general rule I try to keep all my promises, but I know there is a school of thought that goes the other way...promises mean high reward (signing better kids or signing kids more easily) and you gamble that he'll stick around and not become useless...

Thanks guys..yeah dac I recruited him because of his current ability and low funds was the only reason for the "promise start". Hopefully he stays but I wont die if he decides to leave. Just thougt i would ask because actually I thought they all transfered..
