Where we've fallen behind is recognizing the biggest influences in the recruits' lives, IMO. Saban and his huge staff are masters at this. Somebody is driving these kids there for numerous unofficials and I betting they're not using their own money to do it. We have two Player Personnel guys, I can't remember how many they have, but these guys have a freakin Twitter Team to pump recruits 24/7, for goodness sakes. We need to get on the same playing field, hire BryanKRoy, lol.

We put more players in the n.f.l. than anyone else. We are not behind in recruiting.

so far, nick saban has stolen such talents as luther davis, kenny bell, darren sentimore, Tim williams, robby green, eddie lacy, landon collins.

of this bunch, eddie lacy was a good get. not sure lsu missed him as we have had a pretty solid stable of rb's. Then you have landon collins. He's still has to prove what kind of player he is. his career hasn't been stellar to this point. not bad, not great. he may break out this year, however, so far, he's had a harry coleman type career.

Everybody complete your resume' and take it to the facility. I'm sure Les and Frank will be happy to have such fine candidates to help them turnaround the recruiting failures of the past.

We just put 2 great WRs in the NFL, and Tyron tweets Odell Beckham all the time. Relax people, either way he will do what he want.

This^^^

Granted, Clemson has a good track record of getting wideouts the ball and sending them to the NFL (Watkins, Hopkins, Bryant, and Ford) and I wouldnt fault Johnson for stating that. I think its a long way till signing day though so I will listen to his "favorites" but not put too much weight to it. If the kid leaves, so be it, but by him talking with Odell and Jarvis he knows what Cam will do for him too. And most of those NOLA guys keep in touch. Its a long way from over.
