I realize this is starting to derail from its intended purpose of laughing at Baylor and now we are talking recruiting but I did want to comment what I heard the other day.
Guy I was talking to who knows two high school coaches in the state (I'll even tell you one of them is the former Navasota high coach) told me the both said strong is starting to win over a lot of the high school coaches in the state. Strong comes to the school, will give them his personal cell number, says to call him anytime if they want to come observe a practice, talk about players etc. they then said Sumlin will walk right past them, kinda nod his head as he goes by and that's it, will try to go talk to a player real quick and that's it. You want to talk to Sumlin? Gotta call the football offices and get through 3 secretaries if it happens at all.
Sure Sumlin isn't recruiting high school coaches, but he's not doing himself any favors to make it easier to convince kids by being an arrogant a-hole to their coaches.

Strong will also sleep with their wives saving them the hassle. Get them some F350s for the players and fix ACT scores; then fire the offending assistant coach. Players will also have plenty of time to spend with family over the holidays because they won't be going to a bowl game.

This is true and has been for years. Sumlin is a CEO coach, Saban eats and breathes it. You can see the difference in results. This is also is why Sumlin closes so badly and our recruiting is trending down the last few years without JFF buzz. Sumlin will be fired in December if we don't win at least 9 so who gives a frick.
