So your answer, is to ask other hypothetical questions.

quote:

Do you not think that these coaches know exactly how many commits they have before they get the LOI?


Like I asked. If one or two had reneged, and he didn't have some to take their place, you know there would be the whining and gnashing of teeth because of it. The staff did their job and got the best recruits they could. The kid had 5 other schools to get a benefit that thousands of other kids would kill for. This entire hashing out is simply because the kid cried about it and hurt feelings. People need to seriously grow up and accept life will have disappointments.

If you cannot see or understand that this situation was both preventable and and was caused by the Alabama staff, then future discussion is futile. The kid did nothing wrong. The staff mislead him. The fact that he signed with Arkansas does not negate the fact that the Bama staff mislead him. If you won't acknowledge this most basic circumstance then you fail to acknowledge the most basic tenets of human decency. I don't like it when a kid is taken advantage of by a more powerful entity, and then is kicked to the curb.

You would be raising cain if Philon had done what Gunner Kiel did, which cost LSU a recruit (Patrick Miller). UA is an honorable institution and we should expect our athletic department representatives to act like it.
