Did you see who was on the tv screen?

The thing is, Nick Saban has built himself into an almost mythical figure in college football. Getting some one on one time with him as a recruit is probably impressive. It’s like getting to go for a ride in a TIE fighter with Darth Vader while being recruited to be a storm trooper. Going for a ride with Billy is like getting a ride from the guy who cleans the Death Star trash compactor. Not really impressive.

From Alderman at 247

"Something I haven't seen a UF staff do before on a big weekend. Sort of a page out of the Saban school of recruiting. If you've ever seen a Bama weekend, Saban does something a little personal by having a few players visiting ride around campus in a car with him. A lot of visitors always talk about how big of a deal that is for them when visitng Bama. Florida is doing something like that this weekend with Napier.

Different big time recruits, at different points over the next few days will have some personal time with Napier riding to different destinations on their schedule this weekend.

Like first one up tonight will be DJ Lagway getting picked up by Napier to ride over to the stadium. There will be some others over the course of the weekend, but wanted to share since that is something new"

Here is what is really ****ed up about this.

Slingblade Billy is CLEARLY leaking all the details to Balake Alderman, as if the reporting thereof will calm the skittish Gaytor fans.

I've already pointed out that Billy JUST started to employ this "genius recruiting tactic". Furthermore, if it was such a legendary badass "panty-dropper" move, he'd act like Saban and NOT publicize it himself, he'd just let the recruits tell other recruits and/or internet writers.

Instead, Slingblade is acting like a breathlesss little schoolgirl at recess, telling all her friends about the boys who passed her notes in class. As you accurately point out, Saban doesn't feel the need to brag about his technique, so I'm going to laugh when the recruits are able to contrast Saban's cool confidence with Slingblade's sweaty desperation.
