If I were a parent of a talented kid and being offered a six-figure job to get my kid to sign w/your school you can damn well bet I?d be swaying my child; and so would you.

Nah. I already have a six-figure job.

No- Bama isn’t OM. They are much better. Parents at Bama get 6 figure jobs on the reg

Again,and obviously as stated in my post, I was speaking in general and not of this specific recruitment or it being a done deal. But if you don?t think job offers for parents being attached to their signature (LOI) to play ball is a common practice then you?re just being naive.

Bama isnt signing 4 of the last 5 recruiting classes ranked #1 on name alone, either. They?re just not going to get scrutinized as much bc of their historical success in football.

Well, UGA pulled 2 4* CB from Miami, a 5* CB from Ft. Laudersale, and Dalvin Cooks’ 4* Athlete little brother from Miami- and I don’t ever recall UGA getting that much at one time out of South Florida.

I assumed you did but also assumed you understood that most recruits household incomes did not reach it,

Setting up a parent with a 6-figure job is actually not against NCAA rules. Paying money to visit or sign is. That’s why the big dawgs keep grabbing their prizes.

Interesting, seriously had no idea that was the case. In this era of multi million dollar budgets why wouldn’t you employ or get a booster to employ a parent of a recruit in leu of a contribution to the university?

It’s certainly the smart way to recruit.

We need to start offering jobs. I'll help with that fund, & I'm sure graddawg could spare some coin.
