Will never understand the argument/pitch:
"The RB who won the Heisman trophy, a Natty, and got drafted in the first round after playing at Bama for three years isn't really that talented so you (very talented HS RB) should not go there."
I dont either, but I wasn't talking about that at all.
Bottom line for Fournette is his pitch to stay home is "we have set this up perfectly just for you to be the guy as soon as you step on campus, stay home, make your parents happy and be the man for 3 years before going in the 1st round of the NFL draft". Period, that's all I would say over and over.

For Bama I'd say "We have this set up perfectly for you to come in and share carries with TJ, then be the man. Your parents will be happy no matter where you go because they want what is best for you, so stay here three years before going in the first round of the draft, and win three titles along the way. You can be good, hell you can be great, but if you want history to remember you, you wanna be a champion."
