    I can not believe Alabama won another recruiting championship & was put over the hump with a Louisiana wide receiver... Ruins my whole day... I hate Alabama - Little Nicky scares me...

    He is already counted because he is a commit to LSU. That is why there was close to a 200 point swing when Bama got Bell because we lost a commit and they received someone who was not a commit. So we lost points and they increased points.

    How do schools continue to do that on Signing day, Florida & Alabama seem to do it every year on signing day... Alabama got what today that they were not counting on - Bell & Kelly & we thought we were gonna get Richardson. LSU did ok by getting Montgomery but we lost Bell & Benton. Its a great class for LSU but getting passed on this big day by Alabama & Nicky is kinda a downer...

    We lost Bell, not sure exactly why. Perhaps the depth chart had something to do with it.

    As for DLo, well, it was either Benton or Randle. LSU chose Randle for obvious reasons. No one beat LSU out for Benton's services so it is tough to call it a loss in the true sense of the word.

    If Ford and Downs would have been given a 5* like they deserved we wouldn't be having this convo... :wave:

    Ford is the biggest travesty. Dude had almost 1,000 more yards than Richardson this past year. I know that stats don't tell the whole story, but when you're going against such comparable competition and the discrepancy is that large, you gotta give the dude his due.
