Tigermike 4,012 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Now to roster management. The league will oversee medical hardship exemptions, a good move at prevent schools from abusing its use to clear up scholarship numbers. Saban is having an effect on the SEC.

nanatiger 3 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Did Saban do this kind of thing at LSU? Sorry if this has been brought up before, but I missed it if it has.

Saban is terrible for the SEC... How many rules are we going to have to change because of this arrogant little man? I should have used this But he is having an effect. It may not be for great behavior but he is. Ole Nick does hold Jim Tressel in high regard. That tells you a lot doesn't it.

So, why did Saban sign them and sell them a bill of goods in the first place? And what should future recruits take from this? There is clearly a trend...

au2004ece 30 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I wouldn't take a single assclown on that picture back. Not all of them were assclowns. Some just sucked. Regardless... About 50% of them would have been good players in the right system. Saban signed them, knowing they didn't fit his system, because he didn't want his rivals to be able to use them. That's a good strategy, but crappy to the gullible kids that were affected.

That's a good strategy, but crappy to the gullible kids that were affected. It isn't about the "system" with any of them. I guess you could make that argument with Corey Grant -- as a player like him would be better utilized at Florida or Auburn. Yet, he would have returned punts and kicks had he been more talented than the ones who actually saw the field. The rest, just simply couldn't cut it.

johnwegl 11 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I would think that players would talk to each other, warning kids in H,S and this would eventually blow-up in Saban's face.

mcgufcm 4,109 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I guess it depends on your perspective. If college football is professional sports, he's not doing anything wrong. But I would expect the warning to be something more like, "I'm warning you. He doesn't care one bit about you as a person. If you can't help him, he will discard you as fast as possible. You're nothing more than a number to him." Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/73844-processed-by-nick-saban/#findComment-746656 Share on other sites More sharing options...

As if you really know anything about those situations to say that. Just an excuse to ignore the what you know your coach is doing.

RunInRed 19,031 Posted June 9, 2011 Author Share Posted June 9, 2011 2011 The March to 85 - AlabamaRight on queue, just a couple of days after the SEC meetings in Destin where the SEC presidents voted to place a soft cap on the annual signing limits, which by the way does only a little to stop oversigning (the loopholes for counting back and forward still exist and there is nothing to stop a coach who has 16 openings from signing 25 and going over by 9, but we digress), the transfers are starting to pile up at Alabama. No better time to put up the March to 85 for Alabama. The real issue is that these transfers are coming after spring ball. With an oversigned roster, you bring in the new players like Trey DePriest to compete against Petey Smith and Dee Hart to compete against Corey Grant and Demetrius Goode, look to see how everything stacks up, and then after spring tell certain players they will never see playing time. The extra pressure the oversigning puts on the roster and the fact that no matter what, when a coach oversigns in February, someone will have to leave the team to avoid NCAA rules. The loophole is that certain coaches have found that they can use the spring to further evaluate players and make decisions. This is gaming the system and it is forcing kids to downgrade their athletic and academic careers simply because a coach needs to get down to 85. http://oversigning.com/testing/index.php/2011/06/07/alabamas-march-to-85-2011/ Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/73844-processed-by-nick-saban/#findComment-746883 Share on other sites More sharing options...
