Meh, with only 12 schollies it isn't gonna matter who the coach is. I know ms doesn't have a lottery but I believe they offer some kind of assistance financially. Bama tries to do it with only the 12 schollies so they are in effect on probation every year. U could bring in bertman in his prime and he'd have a 500 record.

It's why we don't get excited about baseball. Without a lottery everybody I know just gave up. Everyone has pretty much resigned themselves that we destined to bottom of SEC. We only get rich kids who's parents can afford tuition and nobody else wanted. Blame gaspard all u want but given good, talented scholarshipped players he could compete. I wouldn't take the job if I were a coach. U are bound to playing with one arm. Sad really.

I have news for you, with or without a lottery each team get 11 and some odd schollies.

all schools get the same. now, some private schools have been approved for certain financial aid packages but it still cost the player more to attend them.

the "we only get rich kids that nobody else wanted" is really an amazing statement and incredibly untrue.

That's an absurd and lazy argument. The same limitations that existed under Schellenberger and Wells, exist now. Those two took Alabama to SEC championships and CWS appearances. Falling behind in the facilities race and hiring an average coach, in Mitch Gaspard, allowed for Alabama to find itself in its current predicament. The former has been corrected with brand new facilities. Now they have to find a coach.
