That doesn't mean Auburn will get any of them but I just think Saban has hurt himself with his media relations for no good reason. I wouldn't expect any avid Bama fan to agree with that but I think the constant negative press he is receiving on a national scale can only hurt. If you were honest with yourself, I'm sure you would like to sit down with him and say....look coach can't we be a little more suave with the media. I in fact did that with Tubs a couple of years back concerning the negative events that seemed to happen every year in connection with the LSU game. It's amazing how much better things have been between LSU and Auburn ever since.
Do you ever get to Huntsville? If so shoot me a PM and let's get together.
Recruiting is always a fluid situation so if there are a couple of recruits that change their mind it wouldn't shock me. I don't think it'll be because of the statements made by Saban in the presser. While you would find ESPN marked as the home page on most recruits cell phones, I seriously doubt they have them there for the commentary.
I have a class reunion next year, I believe. I normally don't make it to them (no desire really) but I do plan on getting to H-ville sometime in the next few months. It'll be on a trip back to Mphs even though it'll be a bit out of the way. I haven't decided when yet, it'll be when the weather warms up a bit after spring to play a few courses on the RTJ trail.
