The Junkyard

I think WE put out more stuff on Bama than ANY staff in the country could ever hope to, just one man's opinion.

But we got Rusty and Gentry! So we win!

It is unfortunate that you feel there is a bias towards Alabama. I am the CEO of 247Sports and also one of the co-owners of BamaOnLine. I have been transparent about that from the beginning of my start with Rivals.

I don't have anything to do with the rankings process and do everything in my power to hire the most talented people and professionals to run the various divisions of 247Sports and the recruiting sites. I have proven that by going out and hiring Gentry (who i feel is the best college team beat reporter in college sports) and Rusty who is as connected as anyone in our business.

Also, I plucked J.C. Shurtburtt and Gerry Hamilton away from ESPN to run and manage our recruiting and rankings division of the company. To call 247Sports bias is to also question the integrity of J.C. and Gerry, and they take their job very serious. They would be the first to tell you that there is absolutely no bias in our company.

I understand that this will likely always persist because it is very easy to make an association because I own the Alabama site and yes, I do pull for Alabama on Saturdays. However, I am so removed from that aspect of the business it would be almost impossible for me to influence recruiting rankings etc.

Thanks

But this site easily has the best writers and rankings of any of them...

Larger fanbases bring in more revenue. Its only natural that they would...
