He was recruited and offered by Bama. Curious as to why you think it's another position?

So because we had players from Florida we cheated? Got it


No you guys cheated because you had players who couldn't spell "West" much less "Virginia"

One of the reason he chose wvu, they wanted him as QB.

Just so that I fully understand this, a guy that we did not recruit as a QB was offered a Corvette while we only give 5 stars Chargers? Makes purfic cents. War Eagle and preciate your interest in the program.
Food for thought: Pat White was originally committed to LSU, while Nick Saban was head coach there, before eventually flipping to West Virginia...

This article states that Pat White had an offer from Alabama, as well as Auburn.

Sounds like the gripings of a washed up system QB who spent all his NFL cash too quick. He was a lightly recruited 3 star athlete who had little interest from Bama or AU in high school.

Offer was to play CB at Bama...

Obviously he'd have been a QB at AU

Every recruiting site says otherwise

Stop acting like you were recruiting like you are now in 2004 and didn't want a three star

Hell he was committed to LSU who had the number 2 class

I guess White was the one and only to ever get offered a vette.

Our recruiting was awful in 2004. Still, we were not giving Corvette's to 3 star athletes to lure them away from WVU. Let's get real here. We were inches from the death penalty a couple years before that and on double secret probation. We would have given White some textbooks but no Corvette.

Don't care. Everyone knows Bama is dirty. We also know every other major program is dirty. Literally no one should care at this point.
