It's time to stand up for those who dare to transfer. While transfer culture has wildly invaded college athletics and taken over the entire narrative of college football and basketball — and, no doubt, high school sports, too — Happy Hour host John Gaskins illuminates some of the cases where the grass did end up being greener, and we're not talking about NIL pay raises. For example, Nate White, the South Dakota State running back whose life was tragically cut short last month. Read Matt Zimmer's story on the legacy he left behind despite not playing a down in a game for the Jackrabbits, and it is clear how sometimes transferring isn't just a move to get more playing time, but a newfound purpose and happiness. White's time at SDSU is also a reflection of a true "culture" of success in sports. While that word has also been burned firmly into the brains of anyone who plays or follows all levels of sports the last decade, only some teams actually build a culture that achieves what is intended. Jackrabbit football, and other SDSU programs, is a shining example of "culture" actually coming to life. More impressively, so are the rags-to-riches Sioux Falls Canaries under Mike Meyer. Meanwhile, the Twins' culture is of a sagging team that is up for sale, and who knows who will be in the locker room after Thursday's 5 p.m. trade deadline? As of the Wednesday publishing of this show, closer Jhoan Duran was expected to move to the Los Angeles Dodgers, while the Twins and Astros were reportedly in talks about Carlos Correa, the former Astro who still lives in Houston in the offseason whose current performance could use a boost via a change of scenery. But at what cost, if any, should the Twins let him go?
