The difference is, Alabama fans could care less if they flip or not. They just do it because ya'll are so insecure because Saban has raped your recruiting ever since he got to Alabama. On the other hand, AU believes Foster is actually coming to AU. It will be funny watching the reaction when he signs with Alabama.

Attended a dinner tonight and CNS was the guest speaker. A couple of nuggets:
1. Remember a couple weeks ago where CNS was speaking at one of these functions and he was quoted as saying that LSU didn't beat us in the 1st game, we beat ourselves? Well, he repeated that sentiment tonight but he was saying that after the game his message to the team was that they lost because of their own actions (i.e. failure to execute, etc...). He didn't want their take away from the game to be that LSU won because they outplayed us. His message has always been that you should only concern yourself with what you can control. You can control how you play, you can't control how the other team plays. He wasn't taking anything away from LSU, he was just trying to teach his own team a lesson.
2. Jokingly asked if anyone had seen AJ's tweets lately and then said you won't be anymore because he's banned from that. Wasn't sure if he was serious or still joking. Proves that he does find out when players act up on social media though.
3. Said that Cyrus K was capable of starting at LT before he got hurt last year so he's not worried about him playing LT this year. Said Barrett is naturally a guard not a tackle so he gets to move back to his natural position. I'm not sure if he was implying that he'll play guard or if he was just lumping the center and guard positions together.
4. Talked about how they evaluate recruits. Always look at 3 categories: character/attitude/intelligence, measurables (size/speed), and skill. He said for DBs when they evaluate skill they look at 3 areas: tackling, man-to-man, and ability to play/judge the ball in the air downfield. And he said each of those areas is evaluated using about 15 criteria. He said that he personally evaluates every player that we recruit.
5. Said that he was the only SEC coach in favor of 9 conference games. Said other teams were against it because of their rivalry games (pretty sure he was talking about the SEC/ACC rivalry games) or concern about getting bowl eligible. He said that he felt every player should get to play each team in the conference during his 4 years and he felt that was more important than anything else including rivalry games like Auburn/UGA rivalry. Of course he meant Bama/Tennessee rivalry as well but didn't mention that one.
6. He said that he never has the team do a walkthrough of a away/neutral stadium the day before the game. He's OCD about it. But several people have told him that he should do it for the Cowboys stadium because it's just so different with the huge hanging screen and a walk-thru will help the players acclimate. He's still debating on whether or not to do it.
7. He said he's not sure if this year's team is as talented as last year's team but they have enough talent to win. Said OL will be the strength of the team.

I would think the tool would be the one hanging out in a rivals message board while he had a board of his own to go to.
