Brown hurts. You guys keep telling us how good a coach Dunbar is but he's gonna kill our DL talent and depth by being the worst recruiter on our staff....maybe ever.


Ding, ding, ding.

I really believe some people legitimately believe this to be the case.

Do we agree on everything?

Just a perfect storm, IMO. Hotshot coach, at an awesome school, with tons of in state talent, with 300 seniors leaving, with a special kid at QB who has worked his arse off helping recruit.

Also, LSU, Tenn, MSU, Ole Miss, UF, aTm all have either shite coaches, new coaches, or just suck.

I don't think Kirby is out there buying kids houses and shite.

Ed Zackery..........congrats to Kirby and his staff. The last time they won a NC John Travolta was wearing that white suit. I still have mine.

The guy is basically a little Saban clone in the way he operates he program logistically. We're supposed to believe that he just decided to add in having a booster network that pays players while at Georgia having not learned or been involved in any of it at Alabama?


Let’s drop it after this.. but most coaches don’t have a choice about the boosters. Alabama is rare.. Saban holds the chips. Most schools it’s not like that.. if you think Kirby has the pull on booster or ability to control them like Saban then you don’t realize what it took to get Saban hired. You clearly didn’t know how powerful the REC really was..that’s why I enjoy and respect Saban so much. A good expample is I honestly think Freeze had no choice.. play along or be gone. It’s like this at most colleges.

You guys act as if Dunbar is recruiting these guys by himself. Was he even the main recruiter for Brown? Seem like that kid just wanted to be at A&M.

I don't necessarily blame the coaching staff on not getting Brown. He always seemed like he (his mom) wanted to stay close to home.

Now, maybe if we had Bo Davis still then he could've reeled him in

Let's hope he wasn't the only one. Traveling can be perilous.

Hopefully, Alabama isn't recruiting any defensive linemen out of Central High School next year. I hear Hackberry poses significant traveling problems.

Next off season. His ban is until 2019.

Dunbar is an excellent coach, but Davis is also very good and a better recruiter.

Crazy to think that just over a year ago he was a truck driver trying to make ends meet. All over a stupid infraction that would have been no big deal if he had just not lied about it.

That also tells us some thing about Saban having zero tolerance for recruiting bullshite (Davis feeling it necessary to lie), which certainly is relieving.

Correct Brown was aTm commit and they fired Sumlin. He didn't have a s good a relationship with the new staff but they had time to develop it. Hate losing him but this sky is falling from some over Brown needs to stop.

I think Langham grows into a DT. Something like a better Quinton Dial. Kid can add a lot of weight onto that frame. Hopefully we can get him.
