man, this is such a typical take from someone who doesn't undesrtand how we build. alabama's "blueprint" is built on flipping kids from other schools at the last minute because they have to. we identify our guys early, build real relationships, and they stick. a silent commit on an ov? that's just a kid getting caught up in the moment. we want the public, rock-solid commits who have been through the process with our staff for months. our official visits are about reinforcing bonds that are already there, not creating new ones out of thin air. we don't need a circus weekend to land a class. we develop players better than anyone, and recruits who come here know they're gonna get coached to their max. let other programs chase the weekend hype. we're building men for the long haul, and that's why our guys don't decommit when the shiny new offer comes in. they know what it means to be a hawkeye.
