Unbelievable. UT wasn't even in the running for this kid before the new staff came into place in January, now he's signing with them, giving them three of the top recruits in the country SINCE signing day.

I've read it too, and the reality is that Bama wanted this kid as bad as anyone else. He just didn't want them. If he had signed with them you'd be excited. His handler is a question mark that the NCAA has already looked into and it is resolved. It never affected this kid's eligibility and that is why the other schools never stopped recruiting him.
It's a shame that Bama fans can't be big enough people to tip their hat to another team when they have some success. Typical, but still a shame.

Congrats to UT, maybe they can handle it. IMO there's too much baggage there. The potential trouble in the locker room outweighs the potential on the field. Suffice it to say, I'm glad he's at UT and not UA.

I'm really disappointed. There was a time when Bama fans knew how to bring an argument. Those days seem to be gone.
Now it's just:
1) (ignoring that Bama is constantly in trouble, including now) Accuse others, like Tennessee who has the lowest number of major infractions in the SEC except for Vandy, of cheating;
2) Say things like "yeah, he was the #1 recruit in the country but we didn't want him anyway (akin to the "Yeah, I don't really WANT to date Jessica Alba" argument);
3) "We have too many good players already so he doesn't want to come here." FYI let the record show that the #1 overall RB (Brown) AND the #1 all-purpose RB (Oku) have BOTH chosen UT, who has 3 returning backs already, in the last 2 weeks.
You guys really need to step it up. What about your 24 national championships? Can't you at least throw that out there?

I remember the good ole days (pre-Hootie Ingram) when fans of other schools were "allowed" to talk football in the presence of Bama fans. Oh well.
