It can't be both pre Saban and off a national title. Jones left due to a death in the family and Corley got injured. Was Miles supposed to predict that? He got 2 bigtime recruits that Alabama wanted. You act like Saban was hand picking the state of Alabama because he got JR out of Mobile.

Those of you that just show up at this time of year need to just read the threads and refrain from posting in them.

Bama was coming off a terrible season and we won the National Title. Saban came to Bama late when Phelon had already chosen LSU, so we hung on

I wish our current staff could go into Bama and grab a recruit like JR these days...but instead they come into our state and grab 4-star kids

I'm just stating facts. If you want nothing but sunshine pumpers posting on a chatboard then try here: LINK

Who has Saban taken from us that we've really wanted?

Darrington Sentimore is the only one really. We just played that one wrong by not offering early enough. To his credit, I remember him saying that he appreciated the LSU offer but wanted to honor the commitment he made to Bama.

I can't believe someone will actually argue that Miles is a better recruiter than Saban.

Please don't make me waste my time and post recruiting rankings.

nope, sentimore was ready to make the switch on signing day, but the coaches got word that sam montgomery was coming here so the coaches chose him over darrington.

I'm glad that the rankings that Rivals has is the only indicator. You're a star gazer though, you don't know recruiting it's okay

Sylve has been injured twice even before playing a down in an SEC game. He will be a medical hardship at Bama

Saban's 2002 recruiting class at LSU might have been one of the worst I've seen outside of the 13 player class we were forced into one year.

Speaking of Saban & Aggies and recruiting out of state guys, I remember when Saban MELTED DOWN when the Texas LB recruit reneged on his verbal comittment on signing day.

Of course the OP will probably say that never happened.

once you brought up Phelon Jones as a Miles loss you really lost any credibility
