You’re not honestly this naive are you? None of those things are why 5 stars go to Bama and Georgia. Well, ok, yes, other stuff too but if you believe the bagmen stories that stuff happens everywhere down there and yet they do it way better than the others (except Texas A&M this year apparently) NIL has pretty much eliminated the bag man concerns haven’t they? We’ll see if things change. Also with transfer rules changing perhaps we see 5 stars commit to Bama and then leave after 1-2 years because they are not playing enough. I do think that more teams in the playoffs will spread out the talent at least a little bit. Exposure of the playoffs isn’t a huge reason why blue chips choose Alabama but it’s definitely an additional advantage in their favor. Maybe a few players in California end up going to USC instead of Alabama for instance
