they Have to have a back bone to play for him. The players can’t run the team. You can be tough and still have a good relationship with the players. the Only transfers have been guys that don’t get much playing time.

Remember how he was “wasting” Walker last year. Ends up Walker was lazy and unmotivated and transferred to a smaller school. Another example that a majority of our knowledgeable posters talk straight out of their rectum.

Bit of a reach there. You mean to tell me that you wouldn’t prefer a team of high character players who win to a team of drug dealers that win? I’m a big fan of having excellent ambassadors that my kid can look up to. I’ll take the Josh Dobbs, Tim Tebows, and Peyton Mannings and you can go root for the Aaron Hernandezes of the world.

Drug dealers and murders are a completely different realm. Would I want AH's around nah. But if it's not that extreme, sexual assault or anything to do with animals I really don't GAG what they do just win.
I dont care what kind of ambassador somebody is, all I want to see is results on the field.

Serious question. Why do you think it’s just about money? Texas and USC have boatloads of money. Yet how come they cannot pull top recruiting classes like Bama, Clemson, OSU and UGA? If we’re just about money, Texas would have the #1 recruiting class every year and be having Bama success. They aren’t. Why? Because it’s not about the money.

Didn't say it was just about the money. But you said it isn't about the money, and that is silly.

Why do you think Texas and USC can pay more money than Bama, specifically? I guess that is my first question. There is zero reason to think that.

It isn't as if anyone is doling out 50 million dollars to recruits. It isn't about sheer dollar amounts as it is systems in place and organizational ability.

And like you alluded, it isn't the only factor, just an important one. And if we aren't in the game in that regard, then we simply aren't going to get top 15 classes no matter what CJH and company say to the kids or their parents.

But your approach would harvest that behavior. I want to win too, but I’m not willing to sell my soul. I’ll walk away first with no regrets.

Not really. You draw a line, you can do ABC, you can't do XYZ if you do you're gone. You think Saban kicks people off for weed ilor is worried about ambassadors? No, but does he have a bunch of murderers running around? Nope

Are you talking about Salter? Because if so, he didn’t get kicked off for weed.

No I'm annoyed because anybody who doesn't come on here and pump sunshine 247 usually ends up in this argument. Because many of you can't understand that some have higher expectations than others.

No, you're annoyed that others are not annoyed at what you're annoyed at. Tennessee fans KNOW the shape the program is in. We don't need to be told repeatedly. As far as opinions of "the sky is falling" continuously...if you find nothing to enjoy or look forward to, then find a better hobby. It's okay. Some of us are enjoying what rays of sunshine we can find. That's okay also.

I'm just talking in general. I know he had more issues.

His issue was lack of respect for an authority figure who gave him a second chance. I’m not saying you need angels or ambassadors, but you need young men willing to play together as One. Salter wasn’t able to do that. But you also can’t have mercenaries who aren’t willing to be a unit, that’s another path to failure. Matt Campbell has a path to victory that works. We have to pray at this point that CJH in conjunction with Danny White can put the model together to replicate that in their image.

You are certainly quick to run to extremes to make your point. He could be worried about ambassadors, you don’t know. Also, it should be pretty easy to just do exactly what Saban is doing. How come no one has thought of that yet?

Exactly it is fine. People can find what they want. All I'm asking is understand not everyone is all hunkey dorey about all things going on and the company line. Just let me have my opinion and say my piece, I scroll here all day every day seeing people blow smoke. And if my opinion bothers you enough Freak added this wonderful feature called the ignore button

I'm not saying it's easy to do what he's doing, I'm saying when in Rome do as the Roman's. When you try and fail its easier to accept then the Holier than thought schtick.
