We beat ourselves five times this year so technically we are undefeated.

And CamRob is overrated as well right. Why don't you tell us why you think that.



When a West Monroe coach says he is the most talented but was the third best lineman on their team this year, parents say that he plays scared when he plays good competition (which I saw at times at the Opening and UA) and the fact that NFL scouts project him as a better guard than tackle, yeah I think he is overrated.

People assume when someone says "overrated" it means they should drop out of all recruiting relevance and never be heard of again. Cam Rob is still in the top 15-20 prospects in the country, but top 10 for him is a little much.

Of course, as a Bammer you can't be honest with yourself, much less anyone else, so I don't expect to get a civil response.

In the last couple months since I've started posting, I've quickly learned that if someone presents any sort of a decent point that downplays anything Bama has done at all you ignore it

Ive never noticed you before that post, but Ive learned that you think you know more than the people who get paid to scout prospects, and the Bama and LSU staff.

Also, ask yourself this.. Had Saban started at Alabama, left them for Miami, and then gone to LSU, do you think the recruiting rankings would be different for the classes under Saban they they are now? Nope. He'd be pulling in top classes wherever he'd be coaching at.


I agree.

And FWIW, the purpose of my OP is to discredit conspiracy theories and give credit where credit is due, Saban.

I believe rivals has him at 17 (wasn't he much higher at one point there?), and the range I gave could actually give him a bump.

Scout has him at 2 and 247 at 3 in their rankings.

As far as knowing more than the staffs, I'm pretty damn sure they would still recruit him just as hard if he had a 20 beside his name on some recruiting website.

Is that what you think I'm doing? Nope. At the gym during lunch. About to play some bball. You can let yourself believe anything you want I guess. I've seen your judgement in that already, and it's not good.

On the bike right now. Why are you hung up on my coworkers? People sometimes work with other people. I hate typing on this phone. Guess you have no retort. Enjoyed witnessing your dumbass pride in your school.

Those on welfare sometimes tend to have trouble with the concept of "work" or anything with the word "work" in it.
