SEC step on up to the podium....this stuff turns my stomach.....long article worth a read....if you wonder why the SEC wins as much as they do....just start here....

Saban seems to be doing it right.(Makes me cringe to say that) Be up front with the kids then let them decide if they want to compete for that scholarship year in and year out.

We get the same advantages with our walkon program, although if the walkons work their way on to the two deep, that doesn't guarantee they'll get a scholarship, so in a way, Saban's way is better as it rewards effort.
