I applaud Coach Whitford for using creativity in his official verbiage.  "Future endeavors" has grown somewhat stale.

First draft:

"We extend them our warmest thoughts as they embark upon this oft-tragic, sometimes uplifting larger game known as life. May they only know uncontested lay-ups. Good-bye, sweet princes."

"going forward" can be removed from every place that it's ever appeared and nothing would change.  Succinct = good.

The added words could indicate that we did not wish them well in the recent past.
