4,500 is a big deal to a student but not that much to a department that makes 147 million yearly.

Are you aware that The University of Alabama pays its student athletes a $5,000 a year stipend on top of their full scholarship? Serious question.

You realize recruiting is one of the most important aspects of college football?

If nobody would watch them play Saban wouldn't invest so much time, effort and money into recruiting the best talent to come to Alabama.

ETA: Stuff like this is why I said there is a resentment for these players by many. It's like "frick them" if they aren't making you happy by being useful by winning you football games.

Talent is relative.

If the NFL starts taking the top1000 players straight out of highschool, then the best teams in college football will be EXACTLY like it is now, only we'll start with 1001 instead of 1 best player out of highschool.

And the best schools, the blue bloods, will keep on bringing in the best of that talent, and keep on playing football.

That's just the reality of it. I've been an Alabama fan for 40 years. Your claims of "frick them" is total bullshite. All you are really saying is you don't have a clue as to the great deal they are given.
