Meyer was the one who got PP's ACT score flagged which held up his enrollment at LSU

Snead decommitted from UF after he saw an OTL episode about Meyer recruiting Tebow. Meyer then told Snead that he was recruiting Tebow as a LB.

Meyer told Toliver than LSU's academics were bad and that we don't graduate players. Toliver came down with his HS coach and guidance counselor to check out the Cox Center and that's when he committed to LSU IIRC.

Nu'Keese "Pellet Gun" Richardson said that CUM was the biggest Negative recruiter he dealt with during his recruiting process and the main reason he ended up at UT.

yeah, because he left his team a couple times during the season to "check" his girlfriend in Austin when she was cheating.

i hope other SEC coaches now use this behavior by Meyer to recruit negatively against UF.

i remember chad jones saying something like meyer told him to come to fla so he could be make his legacy and not live in the "shadow" of his brother(alem). Said that turned him off and he didnt like meyers attitude in general. I guess meyer was planning on Al to cast a bigger shadow than he ever did

really? he said so much shite that i don't remember that one, but not saying it didn't happen. Just hard to keep track of Kiffin's shite talking.

That would have been the cleanest recruiting tactic that I've ever heard of from Kiffin.
