Please link me to evidence of Saban recruiting Byrd, RJF, Holliday, or Lafell.



He had contact with them, therefore recruited!

List is missing about 900 other names he also recruited

When do you think he starts recruiting kids?

I'm sure he had contact with all those kids in a recruiting fashion. It could be something as small as camps. It's a stretch to claim he had anything to do with putting them in the nfl, but he did recruit them.

So once again why is the list only 100 some players? List every guy he "recruited" by that definition. Would be well over 1000 Im sure.

Ya, like I said its a stretch. It also speaks to his eye for talent. Hey kid, if your good enough to get this from us, your good enough to play in the nfl.

It's only guys he recruited to a school that signed with the school. So guys like Randle don't count.

Why can't you retards just admit that the person that put the picture together made a mistake instead of doing mental gymnastics to make it actually fit?

He didn't recruit those players. That's it. Period.

You honestly think he recruited Demetrius Byrd to LSU? There is no way you can honestly think that.

I can't link phone conversations, emails, regular mail, high school visits, etc. I would if I could player.

In your opinion, what would be the point of Saban lying about recruiting a few decent players?

I was civil about this earlier. The people still arguing against it are just being obtuse.

They are being so obstinate that it borders on actual retardism.

After doing some research I think that could be a mistake. I still think you can't rule out Saban recruiting him in some capacity.

So I'm to assume you think Vince Young should be up there too?

Based on what? He didn't actually recruit any of the 4 players I named to LSU. I'm not pulling this out of my arse. I'm stating facts.
