UA vs AU with 5* recruits, tell me

  • Troopah & pals have a tendency to attract kids who are easily swayed by flash and salesmanship.

    These types of kids are usually pretty mentally weak and tend to break down under pressure and/or have off the field issues.

    Their fambly value sales pitch often works on kids from broken homes and troubled pasts.

    Ultimately, Aubie gets these overly-hyped kids on campus -often with someone lubing the deal - and the kid never achieves his potential for whatever reason.

    Once the superstar freshman realizes he's only as good as the average sophomore - which happens everywhere every year - they have 2 paths. The mentally strong will work harder and the mentally weak will self-destruct and wilt.

    Aubie commits have a tendency to wilt.
