247 & Bama

  • Let me first say that I really like this site and I think the content is great. I must say though that the constant fawning over Bama is so transparent that it is hard to read sometimes. Bama is number 1 here on recruiting rankings, while they are 2, 3 & 6 on other sites. Coincidence? I don't think so. Michigan is consensus number 1 on the other sites, yet here, they are 2, because you can't have Bama 2. I believe Bama is the largest fan-base on 247, so I understand that there is a bias there and that you have to cater to your best clientele, just gets a little annoying. Just me 2 cents.

    Agree 100%

    Seems like a lot of the same bias that existed at Rivals has made its way over here. Was pretty glaring when Robert Nkemdiche announced for Clemson and 247 had the most writers claiming it wasnt a done deal and Nkemdiche's parents hant consented. etc Kinda seemes like they were stealing Robert and Clemson's spotlight

    I don't think there is a consious bias at 247. Part of the reason why you think there is a BAMA lean is because of lot of the guys working at the site(s) are BAMA grads or worked for BAMA at one point in time. Gentry worked in BAMA and Rusty as well. They know and talk with Kirby Smart quite a bit. Neither is overtly or conciously pro-BAMA that I know of. I would assume they are both very professional as you can tell by the content they provide and the fact they don't sugar-coat anything but simply give the facts.

    I know a lot of other sites are very biased. Warchant is extremely biased and there are several others like them. But I haven't see or experienced anything overtly biased at 247. Which is one of the reasons it's getting such a good rep.

    As a die hard, faithful follower of the Georgia Bulldogs, I am so tired of all the whining and crying about Alabama.

    FACT: They are pretty good. FACT: They get good players. FACT: While media bias does exist at some sites, it does not with 247. FACT: We will battle them in recruiting this year and every year.

    Let's get over this. The last 2 times we've played, we split. They deserve the accolades as they have won 2 of the last 3. This argument is no different than the pre-247 days when Florida won 2 of 3 national titles.

    Let's MAN UP and quit worrying about everyone else and keep the integrity of this site to the proper standard.

    QFTMFT.

    I'll let y'all figure out the words.
