It's that in combination with the immaturity on the field, the struggles he's had with his coaches and the lack of being able to contain his frustrations that make you see a pattern with the multiple changes of schools.
Humans are pattern seeking animals. It's not surprising this all fit together in evaluators' minds.
I dont necessarily disagree. But unless there is evidence of poor conduct triggering the transfers I think this is a ton of piling on.
My son attended a private middle school, then went to the corresponding catholic high school, he was accepted to McCallie and tried it out, like an idiot he didnt think it was for him so he came home and wanted to finish at the public high school. That's 4 schools with zero character issues.
As to the wavering of college commitments he gave a verbal to Miami in his sophomore season, those never stick. He then switched to LSU after they won the title in his junior season. He ultimately chose UGA because his entire family is in Atlanta.
Again, the kid has had issues and I think it is a concern, Im just off on the transfer & college commitment stuff.
