This was very likely a done deal before the guy entered the portal.

Def tampering on Bama, but no matter, he's nothing but Tiger bait now.

It still has to translate onto the field. You could easily negative recruit Corey Raymond and why he wasn't retained initially by BK.

Any idea why we were late?


We need to get better at tampering.

Right. I mean they had talks before he entered and that's why I said it was pretty much a done deal.

Saban left his cheating playbook behind for DeBoer to read up on…I’m sure they will still be tampering without lil Nicky.

It says they’ve got their needs; and they know how to address them.

This was not the year to f around with hoping you get whom you want. Bama got the DT early on.

Raymond went last week. We weren’t late but keep showing how dumb you and most of this fan base is.

As soon as Bama offered it spread they were the leader and going to tough to beat. LSU went in to pitch but we're already behind. I mean he's jus a CB not a DT so not that big of an issue
not only that, Bama's secondary is really bad, and could be worse than ours. Bama has 4 freshman/redshirt freshman in their top 5 CBs. Only one guy, a true junior, is a part of their top 5. They do not have Saban helping to coach these kids, and they lost that DB coach to UGA.

LSU has
A redshirt senior
2 guys from Ohio St that are redshirt juniors
2 sophomores that were in heavy rotation last year
A true freshman pushing for a rotational starter
Plus several other CBs

WE NEED TO HAVE FAITH. We have all these guys with proven track records at coaching. I don't care what people say about Raymond. Flott played good. Ricks would have been decent if he came back the next year and we kept Raymond. McGlothern played well at LSU in his small time on the field. I know it sucked to lose Nate Wiggins (which a big part of that was him training with a former Clemson cornerback before his final decision), and the other kid went to play baseball instead, but got damn let's not act like Corey didn't take 3 star and mid tier (ranked), 4 stars, and turn them into success stories.

All true.

But I think the rub is this:

Alabama saw the need, addressed the need. We need the same urgency.

I don’t care if Alabama tampered. They had and issue and resolved it.

More so shocked that Bama could hold this standard even after Saban walks out


These kids know Bama for what it has been for the last, say 12-15 years. They don't know Alabama under Debose or Shula, they weren't alive. Alabama is going to have to come back to Earth a little bit before it's not as attractive.

"Say we did get him; you people would be the first baws bitching when he didn't play well."


-- exactly! And also would be the VERY first ones saying how BK is an idiot for spending so much $ on this guy lol. It's laughable the hypocrisy they don't see as they type it out lol

What point?? Your statement was we were late and we suck. When in REALITY the FACT is we visited him the day he entered the portal. Not visiting wasn’t your point it’s just the next step you have to take to keep your ignorant rant going.
