if you have XM listen to Clawson on full ride today

he basically is explaining what SU is going thru.. be patient. RS if possible. dont expect to see results until yr 3.
his team is young and ours is even younger. recruit to fill your system not just the 5 star guys.

this dove tails with what Rick N. said earlier on the show about football IQ. its not always about size/speed in every situation.. Football IQ matters and IQ for your system as well. When guys play with football IQ they can over come because they are in the right spots at the right time.. Its why the better team does not always win, many of those better athletic teams dont always play at a high FB IQ

One thing that I think you cant over state about Alabama is that Saban gets his teams to play at a peak level much more often than other teams like FSU which have a ton of talent but are so sloppy.. Clemson has done that 2-3 games this year and got away with it.

I think Wildhack has also supported the building process to sustainable success rather than quick fix. We all want to win every game, but Dino is not going to sacrifice the long term plan for immediate wins by taking a bunch of JC players or something. There might be a couple, but it is about getting guys that he has evaluated as suiting his system in here and let them learn and grow.

Not so sure about that. Not a lot of difference between graduate transfers and JUCOs in the respect that by the time they have learned the system, they are gone. We certainly have no compunctions about using them. I am for both in the right proportion to fill needs.

Yeah, there might be a couple, but I don't think we will take more than 2 or 3 rather than taking a couple DE's, a couple WR and a couple of DB's. I may be wrong, but I think they would rather identify guys that fit the system (no matter how many stars they have) and teach them and allow them to RS and grow physically and then start contributing maybe their sophomore year.
