I'd honestly like to see how well these high priced transfer players actually produce, and how long they actually stick around.

Aggies already found out under Jimbo.

It’s kind of like what the NY Yankees also find out. When you recruit people whose true passion is primarily money, performance is not the primary focus.

That example works against your point. The NYY have been extraordinarily successful buying players.

Exactly. Brian Kelly is recruiting character as much as he is talent level. This is how you increase your number of leaders on the team, which is far more impactful that having a couple talented players out there only for themselves.
