I love the last couple of sections on the article that talk about the grading scale. I admit I get caught up in the star rankings from time to time, but even when we get the 3 stars, I know that Saban and Co. are not wasting a scholarship on kids who don't have ideal measurables.... The immeasurables of a kid (i.e. character) make up for what they lack in size and speed... Javy, Nick Gentry, Corey Reamer, William Vlachos, Rashad Johnson etc. The kids that Saban and the coaches are recruiting have the character and intelligence to excel on the field when common sense and ratings tell us not to expect as much. I for one will rest easy as long as we have Saban and staff in charge!
And yes, I realize Saban didnt recruit all of these guys, they are just examples of guys who prove my point.
