Following the recent AA Supreme Court ruling, this one just hit’s different! The symbolism of the state of Florida and anti woke BS. If you can run and jump come on in, otherwise stay the Eff out! NOT . I'm not going there because you have no idea what your talking . Do not confuse academic standards and practices for regular students with the standards and practices for the athletes. They have always been different and held to different standards. |

In all honesty, that was my second reaction...why would he come to this state of all the southern states with confederate-minded legislators and/or governors??
But people and businesses are leaving this state mainly because of this Neo-Nazi governor that we have and the mindless legislature that goes along with any idiotic thing that he comes up with. |

It's all the Southern and Deep Southern States that have GOP Legislative control and Governors. They can just wear their Hoods in the open now with their Brooks Brothers suits 😆 . North Carolina is right in the mix also . Sports and Politics are not Bedfellows , and people should not equate the two . |

I agree that the symbolism does hit differently.
In all honesty, that was my second reaction...why would he come to this state of all the southern states with confederate-minded legislators and/or governors??
But people and businesses are leaving this state mainly because of this Neo-Nazi governor that we have and the mindless legislature that goes along with any idiotic thing that he comes up with. Florida is too crowded, we need the northerners to leave 😂😂 The Northerners ( SNOWBIRDS) are the major part of Florida's political problems . Bringing there racist bigoted ideology into an already racially tense hotbed. You are correct the Northerners (SNOWBIRDS)should leave because they have contributed to making an already bad situation worse. |

Kids are not loyal nor conscientious enough to saying no thanks! You can't fight for player empowerment and then expect them to be loyal. It's about the best option. Again i'm not happy he's leaving but i get it |

Problem have with not one of those PWI recruiting him out of high school
A&T took him and developed him and made him what he is today
Then he is going ##### on A&T.
Karma is real,

You don't do people like that.
Cowardly move by him.

It was always about money. For some athletes that is their bottom line. For others it's all about the environment and the experience. Money won out with Hayles. Get used to seeing this again. Poaching from smaller mid-major schools by larger FBS and P5 programs is as common as flies on boiled cabbage.

Karma is real, Karma is real You don't do people like that. Cowardly move by him. there is " never" anything wrong with an aggie athlete who decides to transfer to another school. karma? what does karma have to do with it? i don't like to see any of our athletes transfer to other schools either, but these kids don't owe us "anything" if they decide to move on. i mean, what about kids who transfer to a&t from another school? do you consider them "cowards" too? they left their former school to attend a&t for whatever reason, are they "cowards" too? my thing is that the decision is up to each individual athlete, but they are not "obligated" to stay at a&t just because we want them to. so just like all other former aggie athletes who transfer to another school, i wish them well and hope they find happiness wherever they go. but our folk getting into their feelings just because one of our athletes decide to leave a&t is really uncalled for. just wish them well and move on... |

I think as an Aggie you can't help but to feel some type of way about Student-Athletes leaving the University. We all think of 1601 Market St. as a family so it's expected for people to get into their feelings. Especially for the Aggies who care about winning. |

Especially for the Aggies who care about winning. its one thing to get into your feelings, but its quite another to call dude a "coward". that's "over the line" in my book and displays "sour grapes" rather than feelings. my thing is that each "individual" athlete has a mind of their own. if transferring to another school is what they want to do and it makes them happy, then so be it. if you had transferred away from a&t, how would you feel if alums "ragged" on you? you think i was happy about tuten transferring? quite the contrary, i was "extremely" disappointed that he decided to transfer. however, that was not grounds for me to call him a "coward" nor any other negative name for that matter. instead, i wished him well and quite frankly, i'll be pulling for him to succeed at virginia tech. if he looks good at virginia tech, to me that also makes our "program" look good. when folk act the fool whenever aggie athletes transfer to another school, that's a "negative" look for a&t. we have plenty of outstanding athletes who transferred "to a&t". so in my eyes, it all balances out in the long run and there's no need to "rag" on former aggie athletes if they decide to transfer cuz it sho as hail ain't gone bring them back and if anything, it may discourage recruits from signing with us if they feel they'll get treated "harshly" if they decide to transfer from a&t... |
