Go check out the Bama team board. Apparently BOL is reporting that some of the younger Bama players flat out told recruits on campus for an official visit not to go there because they don't offer early playing time. It was a weekend where all the big fish were there, none committed and Hootie decommitted. We all have problems folks and no one is immune.

That's why hootie decommitted.

Some of their backups told him Saban doesn't care about anyone but the starters and they didn't want to be there anymore.

That is the exact reason Hootie decommitted.

Alabama is saturated with talent right now. Makes no sense to go there even if you're elite.

Tony brown might never play

If you think about it, the only reason LC got the chance to start was because Sunseri got hurt.

Also, Saban keeps a senior team, while LSU sends JR's to NFL.

Brown needs a year or two to develop if he wants to go and start at a top level program. Most kids do.

Still doesn't change the fact that bama is saturated with talent. The same thing happened to LSU.

Well if true, what did they think would happen signing with a loaded roster? That true freshmen were going to take playing time away from highly recruited juniors and seniors?

Either that, or those young Bama players don't want more highly recruited players to come in and challenge them.

You believe this bullshite? Bama fans just can't accept that a recruit would visit and decide NOT to commit. There must be a reason - players told them not to, Saban cooled off on the kid, etc etc

Look at Collins, physically ready but without the injury to Sunseri, he still wouldn't be starting this year.
