Most annoying thing your fan base complains about re: your team's recruting

Bama fans kindly shut the frick up.

For ole miss it has to be "Why don't we recruit bigger power backs?". As if we don't try and as if our offensive line could block for them if we had them.

A person (from any fanbase) that claims they don't cheat in some way during a recruiting cycle

For Georgia, it's always the offensive line and our lack of ability to land tackle prospects for whatever reason.

"We should offer such and such in-state 2* because he was really good for my old high school team and he bleeds red and black."

Please there are many that complain even when we are #1 for many years running saying we need better recruiters if a recruit goes somewhere else. BAMA isn't for everyone and that is OK, but not to all. Some are never happy and are miserable to have as a fan.

Our fans assume all of our top recruits are a big package deal just because they interact with each other a lot. It's been that way the last couple years too it seems like.

We buy into recruit rankings too hard.

Assuming that every recruit in the state has some sort of particular allegiance to UGA when in reality they are likely to be transplants from another area of the country / not even follow college football long enough to have a favorite team

For Bama is is usually pass rushers and safeties.

My pet peeve (and Bama fans do it too) is when some fans make excuses for why player X isn't going to the favorite school of the fan. "His handlers got involved...he'd prefer to come here", "He can't handle the competition", "School X is paying him/negatively recruiting my school/whatever".

There are times when those reasons are true, but mainly the kid just prefers some other school. Deal with it.

Alabama fans find a way to suck the joy right out of recruiting the #1 class. "Sure, this class is good on paper,but it doesn't compare to ______." I've even seen some idiot bama fans who will complain about our #1 class lacking "star players."

lol that's easy, it's happening right now,,, every year you hear the same idiots choad on about how "pinkel makes the ranking system a joke" and now that pinkel has recruited a handful of star-stat players they're pissing their panties with excitement. Suddenly "STARS DO MATTER!"

I'll go with "Why don't we recruit as well as XYZ?" It's not easy recruiting when you're so far away from most of the great players.

If we're talking a position, it would be linebacker. We've struggled to recruit good linebackers for years, although that finally seems to be changing.

UF fans aren't complaining too much these days about recruiting. Most are just happy as a pig in shite to land a 3*.
