Let me get this straight

Dabo can have 5-10 win seasons in a row, win a BCS bowl, win 2 ACC championships, place us #1 in the CFP from start to finish, win the Orange Bowl Playoff taking us to the National Championship.....but somehow can't be trusted with scholarships?
Good Lowered...can't swing a dead cat around here without hitting a self-important, arrogant, disrespeful arm-chair coach with no clue. .
Go Tigers!

offering guys like the Davis twins who haven't contributed.
This year, we have a very limited number of schollies. Some would say why not preferred walk on like Renfrow and let him earn it.
I think it is still OK to question these decisions. Of course the coaches know way more than we know. But generally, stars, which is basically a measure of how many big time college offers you have, the higher chance you have to contribute.
I trust Dabo in recruiting. But I do think he gives one or two questionable Alabama scholarships or former player scholarships that maybe he shouldn't each year.

To be fair, given what he's done for this program I don't care if he offers a scholly to a Hollywood hairdresser. With literally NO information people criticize for the sake of criticizing.
And I promise, it'll turn out that the hairdresser can place field goals from the 50.
I'm not second guessing anything he or Venables does. I'm just glad to be along for the ride.

I'd rather dabo stay making great hires and leave defensive evals to Venables. We don't make it to the championship without Venables that's for sure.

We hear this every time we get a guy with 2 stars or less. There's always going to be some players that work out and others that do not regardless of how highly touted they are. What about the guys that have worked out that a lot of people questioned?
Adam Humphries, Ryan Carter, Hunter Renfrow, TJ Green just to name a few

Utter BS. I was leading the charge for offering Denzel Johnson

We have players that don't deserve a scholly based on athletic ability. There's zero chance that some of these kids get a scholly if it weren't for their last name.
And that's the BS part about it. There are kids who deserve the scholly more and they are getting cheated out of it.

minute and Jones leaving which could not have been predicted. Vain for spectators to think they know more than the VERY successful coaches that evaluate players for a living and have highly ranked classes and turn those classes into excellent seasons.
