I don't have anyone specific in mind, but I'm sure most of our recruits get something.

We gave Robert 200,000 for a signing bonus and 20,000 every semester he's enrolled

Julio Jones, then I can't think of another "HOLY shite HOW DID WE GET HIM" type of recruit. Maybe Rashaan Evans? Still, that wasn't nearly as huge as Julio.

You didn't steal Neighbors from us. We didn't want him.

I don't think you paid him a dime. I just think you offered him more than Georgia was willing. After bringing in his brother this season I think that was probably what sealed it. Laremy signing was about family.


It wasn't. Don't be naive.

In all honesty, high school/AAU is basically minor leagues for nba. I'm sure every top 100 player is getting something from somewhere.

A walk on FB at LSU, from the Neighbors clan.

Chose LSU instead the rest of his family...

I think he has started for them at some point, but they have more talented guys at the position like Melvin Jones. Used Hilliard there too this year IIRC.

More of a pure blocker...

I don't know. How do you keep any recruits away from big bad Bama? Alabama really wanted LF, and we probably offered some monetary incentives for him to attend UA. Did LF really turn down thousands of dollars to live in Red Stick?

I know I hear stories of CamRob signing and instantly having a brand new truck, or 4 star and above Alabama players having chargers and challengers. I'd like to think its all true but who knows who actually pays for those things?
