    Can't wait for Android edition. Listen on Podcastaddict and have been looking for this for months.

    I don't know where to post this question so, forgive me if this is not the place. A few of us have been discussing the transfer rules and the "processing" of players. @JeffSentell @MikeGriffith @Chip_Towers @DawgNationDaily is there a place we can find how many players were "processed" (whatever that means) each year, and why?

    How many have not had their scholarships renewed and why? What are the rules and are they different from the reality?

    Does a coach have the ability to basically kick a player off the team for no reason other than he wants their scholarship?
    I'm looking for facts on this. Where might I find them?

    I did find one article: https://thesportjournal.org/article/roster-survival/

    @JayDog GREAT QUESTION! Let me know if you get a response (an answer?) or come up with anything. Finding any REAL information that is clear on this topic seems to be like searching for the "Holy Grail" these days! SUPER Frustrating.

    No answer as yet, though I'm hopeful DN staff might do an article on it sometime.

    @JayDog Thanks for posing the question anyway. I have wondered a lot myself. You put into words the best, what I was thinking, and probably a lot of others in here may have been also.

    These questions you ask maybe as secretive as injury reports to disclose or showing your hands in Texas Holdem before placing the next bet.
    I am not a card player but it seems similiar that it does not benefit, coach or player in most cases to explain the real reason why someone moves on.

    Coaches will only include you or tell you when it benefits the team or themselves on some level.

    The player usually leaves a postive thank behind not wanting to alienate those he knows or those associated that he will meet in the future. There is nothing I am telling anyone that is novel to anyone on this site.

    @JeffSentell I listen to a Dawgnation daily while I drive around during that day on podcast.

    It also streams and is archived on YouTube. Do understand the data pinch there. You'd have to ask our 5-star Podcaster @DawgNationDaily about the process and procedures for getting "Hedges" onto the Soundcloud platform.
