This. If one of those 2 schools really want one of their kids, its hard for the kids to turn away from them. Not impossible, but with family ties and local boosters, it makes it really difficultIt's extremely difficult to steal Alabama high school players from Auburn and Alabama when they want them. The choke hold those schools have on that state is unreal.
If we thought the Lakeland High school to UF pipeline was bad, the Alabama high school to Auburn and Alabama is on an entire different level.This.

I seen Clemson go in there and pimp slap them over and over for highly rated covet players. In the '23 class 3 of Clemson's top 4 rated players were from Bama. 2 DL and a QB. These places are not impossible to recruit. Difficult, not impossible. Then sometimes u can get steals that them 2 ignore like the 2 we got from Mobile.If we thought the Lakeland High school to UF pipeline was bad, the Alabama high school to Auburn and Alabama is on an entire different level.
True, but Clemson is very similiar to Auburn. Small town with a college that revolves around the team. Alabama is little bigger city, but probably closer to Clemson than Miami in surroundings.I seen Clemson go in there and pimp slap them over and over for highly rated covet players.
