Yep, Bama to 7th....USC at 2, LSU at 3.

Even with three 5-stars, Auburn only at #11 ... Auburn seems to have a very top-heavy class.

Arkansas hanging strong at #60.

It will only get worse after this season if they perform poorly.

On Rivals, we have a higher pt avg than bammer, yet somehow, they are ranked ahead of us. No bias there. Yeah, my 3.9 gpa is 3rd behind your 2nd place gpa of 3.75- WTF?

We get a little bonus for having the higher avg, but they get a lot more bonus for having higher ranked players.

Foster's recruitment isn't over and Bama will replace him. I'd think by now we would have all learned that Bama will get theirs. That said, if they don't sign Foster or Nkemdiche, you'd have to think they will have a sour taste in their mouths when talking about this class. At least thinking the way our fanbase would.

This may finally open up Beckwith's spot in Bama's class. Cause and effect. You can bet they will ratchet up the pursuit of Williams as well.

Look at this gem from the SEC recruitig thread on Rueben

quote:

UA doesn't need guys like this. His character can be instantly questioned by his choice to attend AU.
Judging from the recent events of Dyer, the armed robbery crew, & DLiner AU prefers thug POSs.
If they're not already bad apples AU will corrupt them as human beings until they commit crimes and/or NCAA violations.

I love how auburn is competing with bama for recruits. This is going to help LSU. Spread the talent between them. I also want florida to start doing better so that saban will stop stealing talent out of state. I want to see that little bitch squirm.

Exactly. This means we have the same guys at the top of the board now. Buckle up.

Holy hell, then again I guess it's tough to recruit when nobody knows what the immediate future will be like there.

Per SECRB: Scarborough and Foster are half brothers. His expected announcement to join the tide has been delayed and he said it's because of Fosters swap.

Soooooo..... The Fournette sweepstakes begin.

Yeah, and bama has no shenanigans. I'm sure Dre Kirkpatrick abstained from weed until he was drafted. Cuz, he was part of the process. Guess that's why Saban wants the institution to handle it internally.

They've already offered Beckwith, he's being recruited to play a jack LB Foster was a MLB. Thats a HUGE difference in a 3-4 defense. Their going to keep recruiting him but traditionally Miles does a pretty damn good job of keeping kids in state.

Williams is a consensus top 5 DE prospect this year, I garuntee you their already throwing a ton at him. The fact that he goes to a school IN Baton Rouge gives us a HUGE advantage.

Also for everyone thinking that our fanbase compares ourselves to Bama its obvious that we always will. We're rivals they have our old coach and just beat us in the national title game this is how this shite works. That's why the one poster included Arky at 60 in the rankings. There's certain schools that you just feel 10x better about failing. You can't tell me you would feel better about seeing a Bama recruit flip to Clemson than seeing a South Carolina recruit flip to Clemson.
