Sure hope you are right and I never said that he wouldn't be a tiger. I just don't know why anyone would be surprised if he went to Bama. They will be in it for whatever recruit they want. Bama is a well oiled machine and LSU has been nothing more than a clunker.

You look at things too much as a fan. You don’t think that these recruits see our former db’s wrecking shite in the NFL?
Do you think that they are great because of the preparation that MILES gave them? Hell no! They are prepared because of Raymond and Aranda !

Whatever recruit they want? That sounds like the words of an Alabama fan.

You forgot about the ability to be better developed for the NFL. That might be included in "Corey Raymond", but needs to be listed separately.

Yeah because that is so far from the truth. It may be the reason that they have had the number 1 class almost every season for the last 8 years and they have won 5 of the last 9 championships.

I fricking hate Bama with a passion, but I am not blind enough to think that it isn't currently a better destination than LSU. I wish it was different, but obviously the administration doesn't give a shite. With hires such as Orgeron and Ensminger, LSU should consider themselves damn lucky if they land Surtain.

I assume that means that Bama players aren't being developed as well or drafted by NFL teams. Bama has 8 defensive backs on NFL rosters and LSU also has 8. I am pretty sour on the offensive hires by LSU, but I believe that we should always be in it for defensive players. I will keep my fingers crossed, but don't be too disappointed like too many other times in the past. LSU linebackers have done well in the league also, but that didn't seem to help with Moses or Allen.

Screw Moses and Allen. They chose to be just another guy by going there. The way their team is set up, they rarely have more than 2-3 players that are known across the country by name. Saban gets all the pub for that team. I would venture to say more people recognize our studs across the country.

Nah. The publicity machine is all in bamas favor. Hell Jalen Hurts made major pub just for cutting his hair. And this a kid that didn't finish the championship game.
Moses is far from just another guy there. He played well this year and will start next. Already being hyped as the next big time Bama LB.

He was a pile tapper. He didn’t play well, he played because of a ridiculous amount of injuries. I expect him to be just what he was in high school, a great looking specimen that has no football instincts but will wow everyone in shorts and t shirt.

If Raymond is happy, sure.

But the dude made $200K less than Tommie Robinson.

$10K more than Brick Haley.

$25K less than Bradley Dale Peveto

Will now make $2.1M less than the DC.

And now rumors of some of his coaching responsibilities being taken away.

If he’s happy, sure we get Surtain.

Recruiting coordinator. Raymond has been essential to this staff and should receive that title if Robinson leaves.

Don't post bullshite facts if you don't like getting called out on them. We have recruits every year that hate Alabama.

"In the secondary, TI continues to think Alabama is in excellent position with top cornerback Patrick Surtain of Plantation-American Heritage, FL. His visit over the weekend went extremely well for him and his family. We like where Alabama stands with Surtain at this point. LSU is the other school in the running. "

yet no CBs have come in for BAMA ?

Was it the history of recruiting ranking, the number of championships, the NFL players, or the greatness of Nick Saban that you consider "bullshite" facts? These are facts, whether you like them or not. Once again, I hope and pray that Surtain chooses LSU. I think it would be a great choice for his professional development. My point, is that it is not farfetched that he has an interest in Bama. They do have a pretty good track record of getting who they want. They lose some, but they win way more. You don't have to be a Bama fan to see the obvious.
