I know every player personally and they all love Spoon and the assistants. The truth is that none of them were going to go. Now they're pissed and they're leaving.

So they loved losing? They loved playing before 700 fans in a dead arena?

And who is to say they wouldn't love the new coach, given the chance?

Reggie had his chances. He failed every time. Sorry to see these guys leave, they would certainly help in the transition period to the new coach.

But it was clearly time for a change and worry about the long-term consequences, not the short-term impact.

No they love their coach. Do you think they care about long term consequences? They have 4 or 5 years to play and want to play for their coach or they peace out. Why is that so hard to understand?

Get used to it. He knows everything about everything even though no one knows when or if he's ever been to a game.

Supposedly the team loves Reggie but the rest of the student body must hate him, because no students show up, unless they get classroom credit.The team must love playing in an empty dead arena, while losing.It sure wasn't like that when Baron coached here.

Then you should understand why the university has to put the long-term health of the program over the wishes of players who won't be around in a year or two anyways.

Maybe they should give the new guy a chance before bolting. Everyone here probably had some girlfriends/boyfriends they couldn't live without until they found a better one.

Six Griffs have entered the transfer portal in the wake of Reggie’s departure.

Players can withdraw from the portal at any time it's open. They are under no "obligation" to transfer.

Nor is Canisius obligated to take them back, if the new coach doesn't want them. Of course it would be nice if at least some of them stayed to help in the transition, because we have some talented players.

Best of luck. Last year about 45% of the players in the portal did not find a new school.
