All the big dogs partake in this and you would be a fool to think otherwise. When I worked a bogies I thought we would get recruiting violations every Wednesday night just from someone taking a picture of the parking lot.

this. the reason why Bama has so many great classes is because Saban says jump and the AD asks how high. He gets everything he wants. New weight room? Sure. New players lounge? Sure. New academic center? Sure. It goes on and on.

They have a larger recruiting budget than anyone else in the country, a much larger staff than anyone in the country, and a giddy alumni/booster support staff.

It doesn't help that Saban is the best coach in college football history, Bama is a national product, and they are on a roll.

That is why Bama is tops. They hire more men to analyze film, more men to cold call these kids, spend more money on trips to visit and recruit, have a larger footprint, and Saban is relentless and micro manages every facet of his program.

Very few coaches can/will do this. They care about football x's and o's. Saban cares about everything from the uniforms, to journalists, to recruiting. He runs that program and it's his way or the highway and he's obsessed with winning and utilizing advantages.

That's one thing that always irked me with Miles. He cared about x's and o's and then went home. He didn't rule with the iron fist that Saban does. Not saying it's wrong, but there were multiple small things that were glanced over under Miles.
