LeBron James Endorses Mike Greenberg’s Statement About College Coach Hypocrisy

LeBron James took to Instagram Wednesday to show his agreement with ESPN’s Mike Greenberg, who had a few scathing remarks for college football coaches complaining that it’s difficult to retain talent because players keep transferring this day and age.

“I have zero interest from hearing from them,” Greenberg said on a recent Get Up.

He went on to cite a statistic that in 2018 there were 21 college football coaches that joined new programs. As of today, only one remained in that position. Not because they had all been fired, but because the bulk of them took better opportunities—something Greenberg said that athletes have every right to do. James couldn’t have agreed more.

“FACTS!!!!!” James said on Instagram. “Say it louder for the ones in the back who act like they couldn’t [ear emoji] you.”

James has never stopped supporting young athletes doing the best for themselves as opposed to staying put for the sake of staying put. And once again, he wants the world to know that players have every right to chase better opportunities—just like those coaches who do the same thing.
