One thing all 14 SEC football coaches attending media days last week in Atlanta had in common, besides being millionaires, is that all of them are acutely aware that anything they say during their almost four hours of being with the media can help or hurt recruiting.
Recruiting almost has become a separate sport, especially for football and basketball.
The coaches may have days where they are not allowed to contact recruits, but Alabama's Nick Saban has set the standard that recruiting is 365 days a year.
He would make calls in his sleep if he could find a way.
