It's very rare that Georgia and Alabama are the only two teams recruiting a kid.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't recruit against Nick Saban. I recruit for the University of Georgia.
Let's be honest. Georgia, if you get the best players in this state, you should be winning championships.
I've had many a player tell me all through high school and right up until signing day that they were coming to Alabama, then they signed with somebody else.
I was recruited by every school in the country for football and basketball. And an incident happened in high school, and all that was taken away. No other teams, no other schools were recruiting me anymore.
I have a lot of friends that are ex-Miss Alabamas and ex-Miss Georgias.
Central Michigan was the one FBS team that recruited me hard.
I went to Alabama, so I'm still very devoted to Alabama football and the SEC.
It's that way all the way down the line. I've got a boy coaching college ball and another son coaching high school. All the way down to summer leagues, all the way down to kids who are 14 years old. All those teams have a closer.
No parent or coach can be true to any child and say he's ready for the N.F.L. out of high school.
It's a lot more important to get quality young men and good student-athletes that can be successful at the University of Georgia. That's my No. 1 goal.
