I know there's not much reality in this way of thinking but I'd love to hear a recruit be a bad enough dude to choose his school saying "come with me, championships follow me" instead of choosing to play for the latest champion saying "I'm following you to championships."
Sure it's just "in the movies" sounding stuff but that's my thoughts on yesterday and missing out on Surtain.

At Alabama he will get:
-Top notch positional coaching
-Top notch head coaching
-Top notch conditioning
-The chance to play alongside other top-tier talent
-The chance to play for national championships

All of those will benefit him in his goal to make it to the NFL. It's really not hard to see why he chose Bama.

How many teams above Alabama in the recruiting rankings have won a championship lately? Yeah, sounds like a lot kids made that choice

Some kids just want to go where they can plug into a team that habitually wins championships. At the high school level, how many kids went to Curtis over the years where it was a huge disappointment when they DIDN'T win a championship.

A young, fresh, exciting coach can sometimes sell those types of kids on "come here and be a part of building a team that can get to that level."

I'm not sure our current coaching setup fits into that category though.
