These kids are spending all of this money before they leave. Until they get their LSU money, they won't be able to pay it back. Watch what happens in the future. Kids are going to spend all this money, transfer, not be able to pay the buyout and then get left hung out to dry by the new team. They'll be a few hundred thousand in debt and have to pay it back themselves with their new deal or they'll just get stuck with tab if they ever get cut by the new team.

Let's see what Alabama's class composite score is...

That's some BK era recruiting cope

oh no

The 3-star guy is Cedrick Simmons. He's a 3-star, despite the ridiculous numbers, for a couple of reasons. He's small at 5' 8 1/2" and he played at a small HS against other small HS's. He may not have faced a single D1 player all year. Basically the only outstanding player on his team, so they just fed him the ball all year. Good player and who knows how he'll develop or how Bama will use him, but raw numbers have to be interpreted in context.

In HS, who you're playing is huge. My step daughter goes to a big private Christian school. K-12. They beat up on 2A teams. I went to a home game where they played a 5A team and got beat so bad, it was hard to watch. My son was a state qualifier in wrestling in 5A. His best finish was #7 in the state. He's pinned 5 guys that finished as the state championship runner up in lower classes. The competition level is a huge factor.

Stein taking a page out of the Cignetti playbook.

- Kentucky coach Will Stein took the podium Monday at his first SEC media days and was asked why he thought he could win big at the school.

"I think because of me, to be honest," Stein began.

[Rocketman84]

oh no

Can pretty much figure that the 3* guy is an athletic guy who's probably undersized and probably dominating a bunch of D2 caliber opposition at a private school. The 5* is probably playing against very good competition and sitting out parts of games with elite measurables.

It’s insane we can’t just be normal about things. Player who went through MULTIPLE NFL mini camps shouldn’t be allowed back to college football. Why is it so hard

Almost certainly a dig at Tulane/JMU, but complaining about the CFP when the SEC literally had 4 of the last 5 at large spots is how dumb these folks are

They would be dumb if they actually believed it. But they are just politicians stumping for their party.
