Imagine a recruit deciding where he's gonna live for the next 4 years because of a message board. I just dont understand the way you idiots think. Do you believe that other fanbases act like everything is perfect during a 3 game losing streak?
It aint about that at all...
Not sure why this is so hard for people to understand.
These kids want to believe what Richt is selling... They want to believe the program is on the way back. That matters more than wins and losses at this time.
For specific examples... Saban sold kids to come to Bama after his first season. His first season started out 6-2 but then they fell flat on their faces and lost 4 of their last 5 games. He pulled in the number one class. That wasnt because people wanted to suddenly live in Alabama. It wasnt because the coach just put down an incredible season. It was because of hype. Another example is Onions second class after a bad first season.
When you come on this site and cry like the world is falling and then so does every one else on this site. What do you think a kid thinks that's considering coming here and who is being told by the coaches the program is on his way up? He may not jump straight to conclusions that coach is lying but he will have it in the back of his mind. It will create doubt. Any recruit that comes on this site will leave with some doubt. And for the most part we are talking about primadonna kids that think the world owes them something. Not rocket surgery here guys.
