put the skids on the call for FB's need to "recruit better".

There is only so much you can do...until you do too much.

Hopefully the FBI has Alabama's FB recruiting playbook too.

That field needs flattened as much as BB.

Better Recruiting doesn't need to be accomplished by cheating. But it still needs to be done if we want to win a conference championship and go to the playoff. This year we have a great class. It's a step in the right direction. Why call for our coaches to do worse at part of their jobs? I don't understand why people have a problem with top 10 recruiting. Boggles my mind.

I ain't believing what I'm reading.

You still believe, after this week, that these kids go to Bama or Penn St for those trendy uniforms?

Just how would you go about recruiting "better" against the $EC, etc?

Have a coach that is good with the players and one they'll go to war for. Dabo Sweeney, Jimbo Fisher, Tom Herman come to mind. Sirmon was a good start. He's been a successful recruiter in the past and played in the NFL. Terrel Buckley was a great recruiter while he was here as well.

They go for the huge exposure, the tradition, and the record of that Coach getting kids drafted.

How many five stars did TB get?

Four stars?

I'm with you. We need to get more. I just think we're geographically challenged. And we don't cheat.

Well if we aren't currently cheating I think we will be in good shape. Perennial top 25 program that will be around once the giants get brought down by the NCAA. But I'm pretty sure TB brought in Jaylen Smith and had a hand in getting many of the DBs that get playing time. I don't quite remember who he was the lead recruiter for, but I was primarily pointing him out as a charismatic guy who the players seemed to like a lot.
