You have the power to prevent that from happening. This is the Alabama football thread, and I think we should be able to discuss our rivals along with our favorite team. The Auburn fans have their thread to bash their rivals.

BTW I'm not fishing. I made a honest observation. Tuberville made another stupid comment.
Fact:

Last six seasons (counting 2008 class so far)
Avg Team Rank:

UGA: 6.3
Auburn: 12
Alabama: 13.3

Wins:
UGA: 51
AU: 50
AL: 34

Bama and UGA both have some good looking classes. Certainly more 'star' power than Auburn's. But its not like Auburn is signing some scrubs. We have some good players in this class, with a lot of good guys still on the fence. Auburn will most likely have another top 10 class, and be on our way to more victories. I see no reason why Tuberville should be fired.

And he is right. He probably cant list off the guys Alabama has committed. I follow recruiting way to much, and I can only list a few names off that commitment list off the top of my head.

Tuberville made a stupid comment. He is paid to keep up with recruiting, and should be fired for not doing his job.

Serious question:

Why would he keep up with players that told him a long time ago they wont be going to Auburn? I'm sure he is so focused on the players left on the board, I wouldnt give those guys much thought either.

Oh wait... i think I am missing your sarcasm him about being fired. Sorry for taking your post seriously. Carry on.

Exactly...and he knows where they will be playing. He made a stupid comment.

Scarbinsky: Don't buy talk of Saban to West Viriginia.

Quote:
Home is home, but business is business, and most of Saban's business in Tuscaloosa is unfinished. He's a month away from putting to bed one of the top recruiting classes in the nation.

So all this West Virginia talk? Give it a rest.
