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 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 :drippingsarcasm7pa:

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.

I wouldn't take a single assclown on that picture back.

Not all of them were assclowns. Some just sucked. Regardless...

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...

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.

Sounds like something a former bama coach had a knack for doing...

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.

"I'm warning you... if you don't have the talent to play at Alabama and in the SEC, you won't get to. Watch out!!"

*snicker*

"I'm warning you... if we find someone with better talent than you or that we like better than you or if you have any problems or "injuries", you won't get to play at Alabama or stay on the team. Watch out!!"

*snicker*

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."

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.

Yep. We aren't the only ones who are noticing...

Maybe Spanky and his fan base should petition the NFL to add his university to the league. Seems both already have that mindset when it comes to college kids. Produce or get out.

HA! 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.

2011 The March to 85 - Alabama

Right 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.
