    Did A&M win to get their #1 rated class? Alabama was getting top classes before they started winning with Saban.

    John Heisman would be the first to tell you that you just need a plan.

    It’s legal and no oversight = the new way. In other words, it’s out in the open.

    The only way to bring them back to the pack is NCAA action and as we all know they are much more famous for inaction the last 12-15 years.

    It was legal last year too. AtM is not a good example for your argument.

    Only because now the lucre is above rather than under the table.

    It kind of looks like you’re arguing with a guy you seem to be in agreement with then.

    The guy asked if atm had to win to sign a number one class. You said that was the old way. He said it was last year. You said it’s legal and no oversight now.

    Your posts seem to imply that things are different this year than they were last year.

    Paying their worth is what they will get. Overpaying a bunch of self centered big heads ain’t gonna happen.

    I think we will pay the kids when they prove themselves, not giving 5 mil to a hs kid that may or may not be good.

    If we can get 16-18 four and five stars a year, I think we can compete for the SEC East and SECC.

    We have 16 now.

    He's only had a transition class plus the current cycle. Legit top 10 is pretty good, if we finish in our current position. I look for scUM's class to disintegrate. If staff holds the currents and adds a few studs, we be krunky ballin.
