I don’t see anywhere in his post claiming that Bama doesn’t spend money. This is a project on your part. He’s claiming that recruiting isn’t just about money. Recruits absolutely care about playing time, winning, development, etc.

It’s silly for Bama fans to insinuate that AU is just buying their players too. AU offers something very different to Bama currently - early playing time and chance to help “rebuild”.

His main point was that it’s silly to thump your chest over some high value recruits choosing AU. Every recruit is a battle, and AU is doing well… but not to the detriment of Bama like many AU fans seem to hope. Bama still signed a Top 2 class…

Now let’s see how your recruiting wins translate on the field, because that’s really all that matters. If a team had a Top 3 recruiting class every year and didn’t win anything of significance, I would argue their fans wouldn’t be too pleased.

Most Auburn fans are pretty reasonable about the uphill battle they face against Saban. After 10-15 years of losing on the recruiting trail I don't blame a few overly zealous fans for spouting crazy trash talk. Every fanbase does this. There are just as many Bama fans that refuse to acknowledge that things are changing. It's the Rant
