Why did BAMA not recruit Michael Oher?

We were on probation with limited scholarships. Some of you need to get over the hatred of Shula. He came when we needed someone to steady the ship and he did that under difficult times. The man is gone and yet some of you act like he is franchionne.
No one's hatin'... It's just that he was ill-prepared for the job he had and was too stubborn to learn and adapt. Earle's comments about the failure of the S&C discipline only scratch the surface. He was running the program right into the ground, and some of the recruiting misses were because of that.

I was one of those people who wanted to give Shula a chance to coach four full classes of his own recruits before making a decision on his coaching acumen. He was bringing in some great talent (already listed before), but they were the exception rather than the rule and he simply didn't develop them. That's not hate, man. That's the truth.
