Can't have what both ways? So he recruited a 3 star guy that was dropped by Tennessee after committing and that makes him a good recruiter because he turned out to be good?

You don't win awards for recruiting rankings. He's obviously recruited, and developed, well enough for success on the field.
If you think he can fail to recruit well in the SEC and sustain success at the level Alabama will expect, you are certainly entitled to that opinion.
It's a completely different world when you are coaching a program like that and in a conference like this, but you already knew that. You cannot consistently win in this conference without elite recruiting.

He has vastly more experience than Lanning, who was probably the top candidate.
And I thought Lanning was a reach too. The only thing he had going for him was experience in this conference at both Alabama and Georgia. Without that, I don't think he even gets a phone call from Alabama

I never said that. The point is that he is recruiting well enough to dominate the conference he is in now. Why would you assume he wouldn't raise that level to meet whatever challenge comes next?
Do you think Brian Kelly recruited the same level at Grand Valley State, Central Michigan, Cincinnati, Notre Dame and now LSU?
Good coaches adapt. There is zero reason to think that DeBoer could not do the same. It's not like he wouldn't have an entire staff, just like Saban does now.
