Once they get use to not having to work hard, it becomes a habit and more comfortable. Also having a coach that will coddle you and continue to give you multiple chances is also comfortable.
And third, familiarity. The coach that recruits them and they get used to that person as their leader is where their loyalty will lie until the new guy meets with them and assures them they will get a fair chance.
What Prime did at Colorado May eventually work out but to just flat out tell some that they need to find another home before you even get to evaluate them through a fair process has probably crossed the minds of several athletes recruited by one coach and have to go through a couple of coaching changes.
Wil Hoyle thought he was moving to a better situation when he left Duke for MSU. Duke will be a top 16 host week after next.
