You really have no idea what you are talking about as usual... and no need for any political jabs. take that crap to the political board.

Thats probably true, but I have always maintained that their network was headed up by lawyers , they have the contacts between themselves and are a tight lipped bunch to begin with. They certainly don't use individuals that play a part and then go bragging to all their friends and whoever will listen of their participation in recruiting # 1 or whoever.
If you think Saban loses one wink of sleep over losing some HS OT that may or may not pan out, then you are off the reservation. Saban just moves on to the next five star.
Also, Little was committed to A&M not Bama, its silly if anyone actually thinks Saban, the greatest coach in college football, allows freezus to actually take up any space in his head.
you could have sold me that line 3 months ago. Not anymore. He's deep in his head now. Not b/c of recruiting b/c of the losses. It wouldn't surprise me if we see Saban lose it and panic next year, take a beating and flat melt down at the post game PC. He came close this year (waiting till after he won the next game - what a puss). I've about given up on him actually showing up to play them. Bad news is he takes it out on everybody else later, good news is OM gets so giddy about it they prompty take a couple buttkickings afterward.
**** Saban, he's useless. The only time he loses is when winning would help us, and he makes sure he brings his A+ game to face us every year. Go coach Indy. Maybe the Titans will get in your little head, be the first positive thing you've ever done for me. And that's not much of one.
I think somebody misread something.
I don't think it's so much Saban bringing his A-game as it is just Mullen bringing his "oh shit we can't win this one" game. I agree that Bama certainly plays mistake free against us, but I feel like Mullen has the ability to even the field a little. He's either too stubborn to make the changes or he just hasn't figured out that part yet.
Does anyone besides me find the conviction and imprisonment of Dickie Scruggs a related variable in Ole Miss recruiting dip in 2009 and then his temporary release from prison to appeal his "BRIBERY" conviction to be related to the up-tic of Ole Miss recruiting with the 2013 Signing class to be related?
"In December 2012, a federal judge granted Scruggs' motion to be released from prison on bail pending his appeal of the 2009 conviction.[19] The appeal was unsuccessful and Scruggs returned to jail in April 2013 to complete his sentence.[43] Scruggs was released from jail and placed under house arrest 0n March 20, 2014. His sentence was completed on September 14, 2014.[44]"
If that's how their network worked, then they'd be on probation every year. These "networks" are less people then you think. Take Bama for example. There may be a lot of boosters involved with donating money and such, but there's literally 1 guy who pulls the strings. And he's not a coach. Successful networks have no voice, only results. They don't search for the players themselves. They don't take the recruits out and show them a nice time. They talk with coaches and figure their best means to create a successful recruiting class. Then they let the caches do their job.
