I said this on the Alabama board, but I would bet that Obama was given talking points so he could have a conversation with Ozzie and some staffer or intern did a Google news search for "Alabama football" and the Foster story was one of the first links since it went down last night.

The story is odd enough that it caught the staffer's eye and he passed it along.

But Obama also said "draft pick" not recruit, and I'm certain he knows the difference, which means he follows it enough to reference Dooley's quip about Saban getting draft picks not signees. Idk if I can see a staffer getting that involved in designing a few talking points.
