So does this mean he's looking for a 2nd team that can could crack the top 10, or a 3rd team that could crack the top 25?And he needs to lose that outfit. That hat doesn't work for him as well as it did for Bowden.

Already has those...looking for a practice squad that can crack the top 25...no body wore the hat quite like Bowden...it is akin to Joe P's trendy eyewear

As much as I have a man crush on Saban (while he is the Bama coach) I have to admit as an NFL coach he su<ked. That is all the more reason I do not believe he will go back to the NFL. [Pachy crosses fingers, toes, eyes, balls, anything that can be crossed]

ZING!

I hate to be on topic, but I know what Saban is saying. Every other team is telling recruits that if they go to Bama, they will be buried on the depth chart. When you are on top, its one of the few things going against you.

Without knowing him at all its a guess on my part. Some people, when they fail at something, want to get back on the horse and try again. Who knows with him. He seems like that kind of guy. Just do what I do with Mack and Will. enjoy it while it lasts because it will end someday.

Meyer will be at Florida forever so I don't have to worry about this.

QUAD

Unless that Michagan job opens up but I don't think you need to worry...

Whats that?

Oh.

"Room for lots more talent at Alabama" means there's room to go beyond the annual scholarship limit of 25 ...

First time I have heard Meyer to Michigan. He doesn't need to be demoted. :)

He's taking the family on vacation to Michigan to see the fall colors before the hectic season really begins. That's were the confusion started.

"'Bama has room for more talent."

Wow, I guess that makes them different from... well... no one, really.

Great story.

If you're good enough, you play. A lot of kids like the competition and think they are good enough. Makes sense to me.

OMG, I feel so much better. I had thought this ass-hole was a 'Horns fan. Now I don't have to be embarrassed by the **** he posts.

I know the feeling.
