I don’t get too excited about signing day because hi school success seems to have little to do with college success.
Still – Why is losing a kid to Saban easier to acccept than losing a kid to Urban?
A great recruiting job by Tech! He’s a big catch!!
While I understand it wasn’t an “either or” thing I’d much rather lose a kid to Saban than Urban.
