Well, I wasn't here and I promise you I wouldn't agree with them. Recruiting is very heated, but I don't think of the depth chart angle as negative myself.
Well then, we agree. but that is a large portion of the "negetive recruiting" going on against bama.

Ironic that saban was whining about this last year, saying things like we don't have a depth chart, other teams recruiters know our roster better than me - wah, wah, wah....
I'm not going to argue that one.
Saban is going to do and say whatever gets him the best players.

Here is the quote from saban verbatim:
quote:As usual, I call BS and call saban a liar (not like that is new news or anything).
Negative recruiting
Although it remains unclear which rivals schools said exactly what, and to which of Alabama’s recruits, Saban had his fill this winter of ideas being placed in the heads of his recruiting targets. With more than a little sarcasm, the UA coach made that clear Wednesday on the subject of negative recruiting.
“I’m amazed at what other schools know about our team, because I know nothing about their team. And they know more about our team than I know about our team,” Saban said. “They get the depth chart out and they know how good a player they are -- guys who haven’t even played before. Haven’t been on the field, haven’t lettered, haven’t done anything.
“It’s amazing to me, and I’m talking about convincing -- an expert. We don’t do that, we do not negative recruit in what we do. We have a product to sell, we try to sell it in a positive way.”
So... saban calls showing kids other team's depth charts and selling against that team by doing so "negative recruiting". Then he claims his coaches do not do it.

I agree there. He should probably just talk less because the more he talks, the more BS he says. Especially when it comes to recruiting.

Bama isn't negative recruiting, but they're pointing out the loaded depth chart at aubie next year. You guys are going to be packed with top talent next year like Dyer,Mccalleb,Mason,Blakely,
Grant,etc. Also, Trent may go pro after this year
I agree with this. I can see Auburn signing one good RB this class, but I don't understand signing two (Robinson and Yeldon).

Would it be ok to point out to recruits parents which coaches are bad role models for their sons because they cheat on their wives? Hey, as long as it is the truth right?

Ummmmmmmmm. No, in fact if I was one of their parents I'd find that you knowing that and alerting me to it rather creepy.

WTF is that? I can swim fine if that is some sort of floatation device.
Anyway if me pointing out the obvious (saban is hypocritical) bothers you, then move along...

You just can get down the proper line of thinking can you?
I'm talking in regards to the programs. Come on.
Anyway, When did Chiz cheat on his wife? I can't understand that, because she is pretty hot for him.

That's a medical device called a donut, slim. Usually used for pregger women and those that break their tailbones.

Ah. Thanks.
Since I am not female, pregnant, or injured, the gump can just hand on to his floatie for now.

Well, no hemorrhoids either, so you can just hang on to it for your personal ailments or whatever you are using it for.

This is not happening. I can promise you that. Saban does not use a depth chart pitch and in recruitinng meetings for the entire staff when he asks for player updates and how recruiting specific players is going no staff member points out that they are using a depth chart pitch. Just not happening.

I'm just trying to create some debate here. Just because you always bring up something true, doesn't make it right. I would hope that most programs try to recruit these kids positively. Memphis, it wouldn't always be creepy to know these things. A quick google search will give you lots of public articles about people like Rick Pitino or Mike Price.
