Let's get serious. There are a lot of football programs with a good history and tradition and fan base and facilities. It's not like Alabama is the only university with good facilities and everyone else has Vandy or Indiana or Wake Forrest or TTU history, fan bases, support, and facilities.

Alabama has a history of serous big-time NCAA recruiting violations and Nick Saban has pretty much said that he doesn't go looking for violations and chooses to not see things.

If you look at past dynasties like Miami and Switzer's Oklahoma there was funny business going on and it has happened in the past at Alabama.

I suspect something is going on. Why in the hell are all these 4 star and 5 star guys going to Alabama when they all can't possible play at the same time and there are other good programs. Alabama is not Macy's while the rest of the country is K-Mart.

They're willing to redshirt to play for one of the greatest coaches of all time.

5-star busts like Speedy Noil and Tony Brown don't last long.

I guess you're implying they are cheating? They have the 9th ranked recruiting class as of now so your theory has holes. Maybe they just want to play for the best? Would you rather play for the Yankees or the Astros?

Of course there are some shady things most likely going on. There are everywhere.
Ole Miss is the one that it is so obvious at though.
And yes, probably some stuff going on with us too, but we need to do a better job with it, it appears.

LSU has the #1 recruiting class for `16 right now. Is LSU up to no good?!?

Is there a major college program where players aren't incentivized?

Nah man, five stars just really want to ride the bench for Bama. Being in Crimson is cooler than playing football.

No, bad sale, will not buy from a baby back cry wah.

I get the sentiment tho, and I feel that was the case in the past couple years, but I love the all or nothing attitude. It's accurate.

I don't know, when Saban was at LSU you could say the same thing happened and did happen #1 recruiting classes and titles.

Urban gets the same quality so, it's a moot point in my book.

Interesting. I've never heard this theory before.

To quote a current player (can't recall who), "you don't choose Bama, Bama chooses you".

I don't make allegations without proof. Here is what I see that seperates Bama from other college programs.
1) Saban is a master at recruiting. He out works every other coach for the players he wants.
2) Once the players get on campus they have the best strength and nutritional programs. It is obvious to see they are bigger, stronger, and faster than other players their age.
3) They have a stronger mindset than other teams. They fully expect, without a doubt, that they are winning, and do whatever is necessary to prepare to win.
4) Saban has coached them to give max effort for 7 seconds each play ( The average time per play)
5) They are well coached.
6) The players have bought into the system 100% and police themselves.
There are many other things I see, but these are the most important in my opinion.
