I think you can consider LSU’s national championship as having something to show for their recruiting, no? I do agree with you but I think it has been shown that TX recruiting rankings were highly flawed. I am surprised Ohio State has that #14 ranking but I wonder if even in that class they had some serious studs but just not quanitity or something.
Isn’t it pretty obvious that when you have the ability to stack your roster with NFL talent compared to all the other schools playing with players that will never sniff the NFL then you can out talent most teams which means you will win most of your games and be in position to get selected for the playoffs. Unfortunately I do think A&M is doing this now and with a few more classes like this one they will be the same as the 4 schools above. I also think they will replace Clemson as their talent level has taken a downturn if you look closely at their D over the past few years. Good players there but not stacked with NFL talent like Bama and Georgia are right now.
Also, I hate Bama but I am not sure how much Bama has to do illegal to get the top players at this point because they can give a factual pitch that if you go there you will get a national championship, visibility to the NFL and they will develop your talent to play in the NFL which is really the goal of most if not all of these kids.
So now that the football season is over is it actually possible that we don’t bring in a WR or 2 plus a LB or 2 via the portal? I mean, I would call that malpractice by the staff to not be able to get some decent players at those spots with immediate playing time available at a blue blood program (yeah I know we have sucked for a decade plus but still).
He is kind of right but should have also given more credit to his opponent. You know say something like they have a great Defense and they really played a great game tonight to go with his bitching about both WR’s blowing their knees out.
Saban really didn’t give much credit to Georgia just now. Usually, the losing coach says the other team is great and played a great game and his team needs to play better and he needs to coach better. He really didn’t acknowledge them.
Used Michigan as an example. Could have been any of the 100 teams not being Ohio State, Bama and Georgia. I would add Clemson but they seemed to have slowed down in the buying of players at that level. A&M took their place. Yes all teams pay players but there is a difference between most teams and the 3-4 I just named since they are just loading up on high 4 and 5 stars up and down their roster to a level way more than everyone else.
This plus BoB play calling will doom any QB. I thought their QB threw some pretty good balls that decent WR’s would catch and this game may have looked different. I am glad Bama lost but seeing another team that has all NFL talent on their D by playing the “bag game” and buying players kind of sucks. Would have rather a MI type team win instead of a Bama, GA, Ohio State loaded with more talent than everybody else combined.
Bryce’s receivers aren’t helping him in this game. They should keep running the ball as long as they run away from the side Billingsley is on. They should really put a 6th OL out there and just go big at this point. I think they can out power the GA D.
