Since I posted it. let me be the first to attack it. This article is a year old....sorry bout that. But it does bring up the debate on recruiting. THe Big Ten boards are full of posts downing the SEC's "over recruiting" and low Academic standards, so even though the story is a year old, the debate is even hotter today. They seem really shocked that Ole Miss can sign 36 players while their rules keep them from signing no more than 3 over their replacement number. Sounds like they have the problem, and I say I hope they keep their silly rules.

How do they have the problem then?

You can only have schollies for like 22 per class. So how is Ole Miss bringing in 37 this year and 31 last year? To get down to 22 or even 28, you have to cut a 3rd of those guys you bring in.

Obviously it's the kid's choice in the end; he can go to a school where his scholly may be pulled; it just irks me when people talk about how great the SEC classes are in comparison to everyone else. How many of the 4 and 5 star recruits are not going to qualify in the SEC? I'm more curious than bashing about that
