Only Bama's academic standards could get Lacy eligible,


This lie has been repeated and repeated ad nauseam.

There is no fact in this statement. If there is, provide actual proof of the academic standard to get into both schools.

The standards are the same, and maybe even harder at Alabama, only an idiot would say otherwise.

Lacy received some help at Curtis that allowed him to be eligible at both LSU and Alabama. LSU had already moved on.


Lacy was talented in his own right, but I honestly believe that Saban took the chance on Lacy because of what he saw at Dutchdown. Everything worked out, and Saban looks like a genius again.

While that is true, I also think it's true that LSU's class was so full that year that the staff wasn't interested in taking a flyer on Lacy and waiting around on the small chance he was going to qualify.

Maybe he'd have gone to Bama regardless, but LSU slow played him way more than they would have an instate back with his skills that didn't have the academic question marks.
