That quote does not say Alabama and/or Saban does anything better just the process is not for everyone. It has nothing to do with losing a recruiting battle for UA and let's remember the kid is currently committed to UGA not Alabama.

Saban has a system which is not what some recruits are looking for in college. Top tier recruits if they meet their expectations no matter where they commit to will get drafted. The program does not have to win a NC for that to happen for them.

The problem with Alabama system is that when a player(s) does not buy in once they get there, we see the results on the field which is what happened last year. There is no flexibility in the process which is not always a good thing.

In the end it seems Freeze presented a situation the kid liked for the next 3 or 4 years.

It definitely implies it.

Especially the part where it says “he doesn’t care about winning”

Saban chauffeured this kid in his personal Benz to the A Day game.

Bama fans need to stop acting like this was some kid Bama didn’t want. Saban wanted him. Bad.
