The AU fans in this thread are even worse. Auburn has signed more kids than any other SEC school in the last 4 years, and Chizik has yet to sign a smaller class than Saban.
How can a school that signs that many players be so far under the 85 limit the past few years? Where are all your family members disappearing to? AU is nothing but a one year revolving door for these players, and you people want to bitch about UA? Please.

Nobody should be able to oversign and everyone should have an even playing field. I don't mind that Bama does it, but I think the league as a whole would be better off if there was no over signing.

By being yearly contenders for the Fulmer Cup.

What is stopping other schools from doing something that isn't against the rules?

We really gotta quit bringing logic into this thread. We might start confusing certain individuals here soon.

For the hundreth time, the over signing issue is not about how many LOI's were signed over a 4 year period of time.

FWIW I think Auburn is in the only school in the SEC with more Fulmer Cup points than players on scholarship

No, it's about the kids. How can you defend what Auburn is doing, and bitch about Bama at the same time? How do you justify the hypocrisy?

On it

Auburn has booted or lost what, 40% of the players signed in the last 4 years? We're worrying about the welfare of the kids, right? Where they end up? What kind of education they come out with?
Not specifically you, NYC, I'm just trying to understand how others rationalize the double stance on this.

ty
I think we can do an Auburn fraction too
Fulmer Cup Points/players on scholarship
Over 1.0 - damn you gotta lotta Auburn in you son
0.75 - 1.0 - you might be a hurricane
0.25 - 0.75 - try harder, this is big time football

So I guess there aren't any Bama fans against oversigning. Notice how all of them chose to deflect opposed to argue the merits of the issue.
College football shouldn't be pro football. It shouldn't be a developmental league for the NFL that is subsidized by federal and state tax dollars. Did all of y'all raise hell about the scholarship limits going down to (85)? That was a move clearly intended to make college football more competitive across the board (like the NFL salary cap).

I'm for improving the situation players find themselves in, in any matter. A scholarship should get you to your degree, regardless of recruiting numbers.
Do you not want to address the revolving door at AU? If you really gave half a shite about these players instead of just using the issue to bash Alabama, I'd think you'd have plenty to say about whats happening down at the barn.
Of course that would require you to stop with the rank hypocrisy you guys are showing...

So Auburn has kicked off a large portion more than Bama? are you sure about that? or are you just throwing a bunch of flame shite against the wall?
Do you have any numbers or evidence to back this hypocrisy you state?
What would you say about a coach promising a scolarship if he signs his LOI then doesnt give him the scholly because too many qaulified. Then does not let him out of his LOI to attend another school.

Bingo!
Oh well, as I said earlier, Saban will laugh at this. He will find away around it just like he finds ways around everything else. People keep saying they think Saban is dirty, but what they dont realize is he is very much not. He spends all his time finding ways to skirt rules while staying within them. This is why he is worth every penny of the ginormous salary we pay him. He is innovative. He stays on the very cutting edge of his job at all times because he works his arse off all the time. This is what makes other coaches upset, he makes them look bad by cause he works twice as hard as they do.
