Imagine being Kirby right now. He is trying diligently to prepare his team for the SEC Championship and potentially College football playoffs. He has been recruiting hard and closed a class this week during preparations for the SEC Championship game. He has been chasing kids at the last moment to flip to us or trying to get kids to not flip away from us. The portal is about to open and he is trying to recruit his own players that he wants to stay. He also must be keeping an eye on players that are going into the portal. He is being pulled in all different types of ways possible. Then you have a kid that visited us multiple times that we have recruited since the ninth grade and was once committed to us. He visits Texas ONE time and signs with them. It’s ALL about the money now days…..there is no loyalty to anyone but the Benjamins. I can’t blame JT at all……I blame the system. It’s really disgusting! The deepest money pool will always win. It’s not about the x’s and o’s but it’s all about the jimmys and joes for sure…..that statement to me has never been truer in this environment we are in! Money talks…..WHY would Kirby or any coach worth a damn put up with this crap? Kirby has made his money for generations of his family to enjoy. Why would a good/great college football coach put up with this bs…..just go to the NFL if you are qualified and you don’t have near the headaches!! Times have changed and either you adjust or you get swallowed up. To the loyal fan it stinks watching what is happening. I’m all for kids getting paid but put a cap on how much you can pay as a whole for your scholarships. This whole environment turns my stomach. I love the Dawgs and will always cheer them on but this is getting harder and harder to enjoy like in the past! This is just not about losing a prize recruit but a summation of the bs that is happening right before our eyes. The genie is out of the bottle…..college football needs to be fixed with some type of guidelines for sure!
