According to the story, they sent 105 letters to this kid in one day! Holy crap they want this kid huh? Not sure if I'd be annoyed as hell or flattered with that kind of attention.
Makes me wonder what other kinda gimicks universities use to get a kid's attention?

I would say that's just way over the top. Getting five or ten from the same person or college would seem like a lot. 105? Saban is weird.

Maybe it is some kind of record to impress the kid?

Ya, Meyer is known to hound kids too. I wouldn't be surprised if he sends out letters, texts, etc at a rate that is at or near the top of college coaches. But hey, it seems to work for these guys so it's cool with me.

What a pathetic gimmick. I was also reading how he had told a recruit that he had a dream about the kid starting on the team and that he felt this was a sign from God that the kid should commit. Wait, nevermind... I think that was another slick southern team coach.... man those used car salesmen are all alike, I get them confused sometimes. Anyway, good thing Bielema isn't in the SEC, can you imagine how he would react to this kind of crap? Ha! Dude would totally be all whiny about it I'm sure, and Alabama's fans would be like "LOL, stop crying you big pansy vagina coach, there's nothing illegal here so go phuck yourselves and choke on your self-righteous integrity! You're just jealous of our awesome coach!!" Boy I'm glad the Big Ten isn't like that at all. Bo and Woody would cut-off their own arms before they begged some kid with 105 letters to come to their school.

I'm unsure why people care that coaches send a lot of letters/texts/etc.
