Now I am sure that some of you math folks can explain these numbers more in depth. This is just somewhat of a comparison between us and Bama.
True but, no other SEC school has experienced the internal turn over from the President on down to the coaching staff. Actually, when you look at those figures you realize those who have maintained their ADs, and Coaching staff are the on who have had the best teams, best Coaching staff and have been able to recruit the best players. I am a bit surprised that we have not lost more players than we have. In fact, I think the losses we have suffered this last year indicated that a the teams has simply eliminated a number of players who need to find another place to complete their playing days. I think we will be entering a period where a high number of new recruits will likely be staying with our team unless they have been recruited over during the next 2-4 years.Worst attrition rate in the league.
