No doubt about it, Bama is THE premier program in college football right now. Any recruit would be stupid to pass up an offer to go there. However, this particular situation is being blown way out of proportion. "Bama steals #1 recruit out of Louisiana" was the fricking headline on ESPN.com this morning. When in reality he wasn't even a top 10 guy and LSU backed off of him months ago. There isn't a staff in the country with more info no Williams and it's not like we don't have a track record with d-linemen. I guess I should be hoping LSU can recover from this??

No, that's not what ESPN said, unless they've changed.

Here's the headline I see on ESPN Recruiting section:

quote:
Williams, top player in La., commits to Alabama

Doesn't say #1 player, says top player and nowhere does it say "Bama Steals" which would lead people to believe we stole him from LSU. I know we are all playing the semantics game here to fit agenda's.

No need to run the kid down becuase he choose to go out of state and play for Bama. LSU didn't want him, fine, we don't really give a damn. He's a good player and we hope he is a badass for us. LSU fans want to damage control when there is no real need.
