When Ross arrived in Tuscaloosa in 1990 and was put in charge of Alabama's recruiting operations, he met with then-athletic director Hootie Ingram.

“He said, ‘Listen, at Alabama, there is no recruiting budget,’” Ross said. “Whatever we’ve got to spend to recruit — now he wanted it done legally — but there is no limit. He said, ‘I want you to go get the best players you can. Money is not a factor.’

Yeah, sure, he wanted it done legally, that's why you put that qualifier there...
