Oh I'm sorry. I guess we're supposed to know our place and never have a coach who can recruit.

Oklahoma has a long history of corrupt recruiting. Even worse than ours was in the old SWC and that's saying something.

Ok so Tunsil is the only legitimate (if you even want to call it that) gripe anybody (outside of State) could have.

If you wanna say OM is cheating fine go ahead but just admit you think we it's bc WAOM and we've had a nice run in the recruiting world the last year or so against better programs, all while ignoring the fact that we've also lost a lot of players to other schools, and not bc of one kid's (Tunsil) decison.

Meh most of these kids think they can win wherever they go.

I dont think you or Bama necessarily do the greatest amount of dirty recruiting tactics. But when it comes down to it, there are few who can out dirty a AL school.

If you are using never losing a recruit as a measuring stick for cheating, then nobody cheats because everyone loses recruits. Heck we've lost three this year, and may very well lose a couple more.

Where'd I say that?

Though, if you think about it, losing a recruit is more proof of not cheating (or at least not cheating enough) then someone committing to us is proof of us cheating.

Where you said "all the while losing recruits to other schools"

Every school loses recruits. Name one school that doesn't lose any recruits. All I was saying is that you can't use losing recruits as proof of a clean program. Otherwise all programs would be clean by that standard.

UT was getting who ever it wanted with Fulmer during the 90s and early 2000s. A few Memphis boosters were all about a dollar and a hand out. Kiffin made sure he got who he wanted. Doolander and Jones seem a lot more legit then the the guys before them. Atleast from a dollar amount, "helping" parents find jobs, cars, etc stand point.

That being said there's been a lot of Salty VU staff members, alumni, and staff throwing comments out with how we dominated the in state talent after a few 5-7 seasons. Franklins been adament about the arse hurt

Actually it is pretty close with every other successful program in the sec. Anyone who thinks otherwise is delusional or in denial. AU is not anymore dirtier than Alabama, UT, LSU, UGA, etc


Sure there is a difference, some of us get away with it better...

How much is the going price for a bench warmer? Wouldn't think you'd have to save up for either or I that situation. Though I'm sure Treadwell broke the bank.
