there is still a lot that will play out with Randle


Its going to be very interesting to see how all these talented receivers fall into place. Randle and Debose are definitely at the top of the heap. Then you have guys like Kelly, Patterson, Bumphis, Brown, and so forth. They are all good players.

...and Randle. I think you can add him to that list.

After the Joe McKnight fiasco, no rational LSU fan has Randle penciled in.

Correct.

Also remember that Saban over signed like hell during his first few years at LSU. He then bailed when over-signing caught up with him and left Miles first class extremely short. He's following the same blueprint at Bama so expect a REALLY down class in two years. Probably the same year he bails again.

He is from Michigan and so is our special teams coach and that is how we got mark Ingram.


I think it was more that Saban was an assistant coach on the Michigan State team that Ingram's dad played on than the Spec. Teams coach being from Michigan. Either way he was a helluva get, and will continue to be good player. I'm just not sure how much it will help out with Campbell.

Possibly....but since they ban everyone that doesn't drink their koolaide, unlike tigerdroppings, the delusion only gets worse.

I went over to Tidefans and checked out their recruiting board
Their list of recruits consists of every recruit LSU wants. Tidefans then take that list and it becomes their list. They chase every LSU recruit, it's like trying to get sloppy seconds.

Fact: To date, Saban has a big fat goose egg when it comes to recruiting LA players that LSU wants. Can't argue with facts. Saban cannot out recruit Miles in LA. Hasn't ever happened and won't happen. Miles recruitment skills are about as good as they come.

I completely agree. However, there is nothing special or magical about someone being from Louisiana. I will be just fine taking players from Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, and Georgia.

I guess they also think NCAA scolly limits don't apply to them


Well....they don't.
They also think that there football team's HC position is the best job in the country.
Hmmmm....I wonder why coaches turned it down b4 $aban. I wonder why they had to back up a truck load of money to $aban's house in Miami to get him to take the greatest of jobs. If all else fails the gumps can just do what they've done in the past a pay the players.

Well, of course, there is the whole 'getting a kid away from LSU' thing, but that doesn't make them good.

Do you think you are great or magical because you are from Louisiana? I sure as hell don't have the stupidity to think that my state is that great.

"Bama Taking 30 Recruits? Fans Penciling In RR"

They have also penciled in their 18th...whatever National Championship. They live in an alternate universe.

They aren't taking any chances...I suspect they have already started. As one Bama grad told me, "I don't care who we have to hire, how much we have to pay him or how many rules we have to break, I'm ready to win again, like we used to."

That doesn't really matter much to me as it would some folks. I'm fine and dandy with a Top 5 recruiting class every year without LA kids.
