DO you think Love and Scott are 1st rounders? I didn't think so. If they were that good, they would be starting from day 1.


So every 5* player from every other state started last year?

And I guess every freaking 5* recruit in the country started from day 1? That's like trying to say Nico, Dre and Fluker won't be 1st rounders if they don't start this season. Who knows if they are 5* til they have the opportunity to prove themselves. But you can't count them out when they haven't even played.

Scout had them ranked as follows:

Julio- 5 star
Love- 5 star
Dre- 5 star
Nico- 5 star
Milliner- 5 star
Scott- 4 star
Fluker- 4 star

So scout was different on 2 guys. Does scout also have a bias towards Bama?

$$$$ coming from the high number of bama subcriptions can lead to bias.

It would be like a bank sucking up to their highest accounts. That is how business works. It is a brilliant idea. Keep them coming back since that is where a lot of revenues is coming from.

Why? According to you, we don't have talent. Only legit 5 star on the team and stuff...

Yea because Dre was a Bama commit for months before his 5 star, right?

This.

I'd have to say that Julio, Fluker, Dre and Milliner were legit though.

There is no way we would take that title away from you and your dawgrant escapade. That's yours and yours alone.

Fluker is rated just on his size. Saban said today that he is not in good condition and has limited experience on the offensive line. I think it showed in the Army All-American game.

I know how it works but I also know how to evaluate football talent. That doesn't change the fact that the top player's in Alabama (rivals, scout, bham news etc.) have chose UA over AU since Saban's arrival. Is that the reason you're so upset over a HS player's ranking?

If you want, we can change their ranking to a 2 or 3 star so AU will have a better class on paper but that will not change what is going to happen in Nov.
