Something is not right here. Chips just don't add up enough for this many great players to go there.

At this point they're only on their 2nd elite class and even it wasn't as highly ranked and deep as our last two. Farrell touched on that in an article on Allen and said the 2013 class was extremely top heavy and lacked depth and that depth has shown up as the season went on.

That aside, Freeze and OM have shown promise on the field, beaten Bama consecutively (something no one has done since Saban took over, I believe), had immediate playing time to sell in 2013 and again now and he's primed to have three first round picks. Granted they would've likely been 1st round picks regardless of where they went, but kids typically don't see it that way. I wouldn't be surprised if there's not something a little shady going on but their classes haven't been so elite top to bottom to cause me much concern either.

They'll be exposed next year. Both MS schools will.

Paid..........helped out yes. But being bought is a complete different level. See Auburn and Cam. That is where the real problem lies and a difference in some programs. Helping a kid with a daughter or a bad situation at home that needs immediate help or so he can take a girl to eat pizza and things needed such as :) tacos.

But Cam Newton's and as far back as Eric Dickerson ect is not the same.

You're exactly right. We need to get over this entitled complex and close out 2016 with a good class of our own. Calling everyone cheaters who out recruit us isn't going to cut it. There are currently 26 other teams ahead of us on Rivals. But we can close that gap in the last 2 months and I expect we will. With only 22 max schollies to give this year, it's not going to be a top 5 class. But it can be an excellent class with only 7 or 8 big commits down the stretch. Eight of 15 are 4 stars and that's impressive. Just need to finish strong is all.
