Reply to "Princeton vs Alabama"

I wonder how it came down to those two schools.  Good enough for Alabama, but Stanford, Notre Dame, Vanderbilt or Duke are not in the mix?  Surely Princeton is cream of the crop academically but there are a few schools such as the above that are also top tier but with much stronger football.  I wonder if he realized there are too many educational compromises to be made as an athlete even at a top tier P5 school.

Recruiting, especially QBs, Catchers, Point Guards...maybe SSs are a little different than other positions.  Sorta one-slot-per-school per recruiting cycle.  And then there's the mutual interest thing, the "fits our system" thing and a few others - those other schools probably were locked into someone else who fit all of the above.
