I think it's a skill tree you unlock once you get hired by Auburn.

Interesting take but I’m also not a fan of the “they used to be mediocre so they should know their place” take that people use in these situations. UF is in a hot bed of talent and in one of the premier leagues, there’s zero reason they should be okay with just being decent

LSU was a underachieving mediocre program for a long time as well, but no one with a straight face is going to seriously tell you that isn’t a program that should have NC expectations every season.
Sunbelt Billy has a lot of friends in the media because they’re capeing for him in a way they didn’t for Boom and he actually had a 11 win season there after inheriting Urban’s mess.

Gavin Nix, Drake Stubbs and Seseu Alaufaitili this week. Recruiting never an issue with Mario Cristobal at the helm

Not to mention the south was racist as hell and the SEC wasn’t fully integrated until like the mid 70s. There’s a reason a guy like Anthony Carter (who’s from Riviera beach, FL) went to Michigan. A lot of elite athletes from Florida were going to northern schools or HBCUs during those eras
Look how things started to balance out with the Florida big 3 after the 70s and into the 80s when dudes started staying in-state, instead of going north and instead of going to HBCUs, they started going to UF, UM and FSU.
Guys like Bullet Bob Hayes and Deacon Jones who went to FAMU and Mississippi Valley state probably would’ve went to UF. Both are from Central/North Florida

If you're going to play this game and take away the best stretches in a program's history or the 1-2 coaches in a program's history, you can make this argument for most programs.
- If you take away Bear Bryant and Nick Saban Alabama only has one national championship
- What was FSU before Bobby Bowden? Take away Bobby and Jimbo and FSU hasn't accomplished anything.
- What was LSU before Saban? There was literally a 50-year period before the early 2000s when LSU was bad
Ohio State, Notre and Oklahoma amongst the only programs to truly have sustained success regardless of the coach.

Was actually going to ask you the same thing re: why kids are leaving.N41D why is Elko focusing so much of his recruiting resources in California?
I'd guess they landed Longstreet and probably just saw a window to capitalize on him/his draw and make a concerted effort to rally around him. I wouldn't guess this is likely a long-term plan, because they don't really have anyone on staff with real meaningful past connections out there, but who knows.
Yall gonna land Riley Pettijohn or is he going tOSU?

Swaim's been on that for months now and nobody with any credibility has corroborated it.

He makes **** up and does so with such frequency that if anything even seems close to what he said he claims he was right

I think we lead on Pettijohn but we don’t NIL so that could change fast

Chris Weinke and P-Dub below Corum and McCarthy is ridiculous. Warrick and Chris should be top 10
