What wasn't said but absolutely needs to exist is a kid willing to take the time to work on his game. Proof of that is Jordan Pierce.

My guess is that AG had all intentions of red shirting him when practice started in the fall. The kid didn't work and AG knew he wasn't going to stick. Transferring to another school would mean a one year redshirt so there was no loss to Pierce that he played in a couple games.

I'm guessing, in today's immediate gratification culture, it is harder and harder to find a kid willing to play minimal minutes for three years and spend the time working his craft for a payout of playing meaningful minutes for two years.
