The Michigan State coach pointed to skyrocketing transfer numbers Tuesday on "The Drive with Jack Ebling" as proof that this generation lacks the toughness of previous ones. "We're up to over 700 players transferring (in the country this year) already, and I've heard we're going to go over 800," Izzo said. "We're creating a system that we're never teaching a kid how to fight through (tough times). Three-quarters of the kids are transferring because they didn't get enough shots, didn't get enough ball, didn't do this or that. We're helping to create a society of, when the going gets tough, you bolt and leave." www.thescore.com/news/1007632

Celebrities are idolized in our society, including athletes. High school football and basketball games are broadcast on network television for pete's sake. The star status and notoriety these kids have coming out of high school is ridiculous. The kids didn't create this, the public did. Humility builds character. Many of these kids have no clue as to what that means.

Many of these kids have no clue as to what that means. Good point. It's part of this instant gratification society. Shoot - there was even a commercial that denigrated somebody if their news was more than 2 minutes late. Can't blame the kids for that. And gone are the days when many people worked in the same place for 30 years - no judgement on that one way or another. But I know personally that there are many hard-working kids. I've got a couple in the house, but they were still influenced by the electronic, instant society they grew up in.

What do you expect from the " cupcake generation"! As I tell my students, grow up ..It's a big bad world that will swallow you whole if you don't learn that the world doesn't revolve around you.

Looks like two of Niagara's transfers will graduate in May so isn't as bad as it sounds.
