This was absolutely not the case a couple years ago, I saw ranking chasing and star watching to the detriment of scheme fit etc. The sad thing is, this shouldn't even have to be said, but early Sumlin and late Mack Brown show it happens.

Discusses people upset about transfers, but don't talk about the kids that leave other programs to come to A&M (Knight, Ford, and Trayveon Williams...)
