You just can't spin going 0-3 for those three. Yesterday when it was clear Sanders was gone everyone is saying "Dean and Neal are who matter." That still applies and losing both is huge.


Specifically Neal. If we lose Neal today is a disaster. If we keep Neal today sucks arse but IF we sign Tototototototo then it's not a disaster.

Someone get the REC Treasurer on the phone. Need to divert the funds in our "Paying Refs" Account to the "Paying Players" Account.

All these people flipping makes me think Their is some validity to the Saban to GB rumors.

We have offered 200+ guys this cycle.

Bro how many times did Dean not show up to Bama. Oh we got tickets to a hockey game. Oh my car broke down. Kid just couldn't tell the staff no or they didnt get the hint.

You think this is the first time that’s happened? It happens more times than others given the cycle but hell, Keenan Allen, Isaiah Crowell, Leonard Fournette, the Mississippi kids we never could pull that always flipped, Cam Akers, Matt Elam (lol), the list goes on. I want us to sign all the guys Saban wants but that’s not realistic because they’re 17, but the same guys we missed on above. Guess what? They don’t have a national championship. Not 1. And we have 5. I’ll take the championships on the field over the recruiting ones. And lol we are still going to sign the 1st or 2nd best class regardless of opinion

Saban needs to leave if he can’t do better than this. He’s getting his arse whooped. Bring in the young blood (Dabo)

I get the staff still trying to get him on board, but we were way to high on him in retrospect...

Hate to say it and I'll get blasted for it it...but is this the 1st sign Saban may be starting to slip just a little? He's been so dominant on the recruiting front for so long, and this makes 2 years in a row his former assistants are whipping his arse on some of the biggest names in the land.

I think he needs to revamp his recruiting strategy. The whole "I'm not gonna give you anything, come here and work for it" doesn't seem to be working as well as it once did. He may need to get down in the mud and sling some dirt with some of these young turds like Kirby and Pruitt. Either that, or he may get passed up. He adopted his offense a few years ago, hopefully he can adapt his recruiting style. This is pretty discouraging to see a replay of last February today.
