On negative recruiting

When Les Miles ranted about negative recruiting on Signing Day, most thought he was talking about Alabama.

It turns out Florida might have been his target as well.

Sports Illustrated has a story on the Gators' recruiting class this week. In the magazine, LSU recruit Terance Toliver is quoted telling a Houston TV situation, "Every time (Florida recruiters) came, they said LSU doesn't qualify its players.''

The magazine quotes Florida coach Urban Meyer as saying, "What some people perceive as negative recruiting is often factual. We just present statistics to people - our graduation rates and how we qualify our guys compared with all SEC schools. We would not single out LSU.''

But when Miles gave his infamous Bayou Bash rant, it was Alabama, not Florida, singled out with an F word.

I guess it depends on whom the negative recruiter is.
