What does Harbaugh coaching in an NFLSuperbowl have to do with being able to out outrecruit Saban?
Harbaugh is in year 2 at Michigan and hasn't won anything yet......while Saban has won 4 of the last 7 titles and is the Gold Standard of college football coaches....maybe that's why.
Also, are you suggesting Bama has rampant PED use or something? They pay their S&C coaching $600k a year, they're serious about winning down there. By contrast, for example, we're paying ours $60k. Perhaps that explains a good bit of it.
Did you watch the LSU - Bama game? Both teams were playing with essentially the same athletes, final score was 10-0. Is LSU handing out PEDs to their kids too?
I can't stand Bama either, but come on. Saban is innovative down there, is totally committed to winning with how he's structured every facet of his program. Even in winning, he's been more than willing to change things to stay ahead of the pack, not stubbornly stick with his system and try and put square pegs in round holes (cough...Butch Jones....cough).
I suspect those are the most likely reasons why they're winning so much more than most down in Tuscaloosa, not just because they have bagmen and steroid peddlers running rampant
