walksalone Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 So since we are a top ten destination that means we can fire Bo and can get a real head coach right? Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Yeah surprised at OU being that high, Id also move LSU up a bit. Quote Link to comment
Creighton Duke Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 UGA should be higher, actually. Upsides: Best college town in America, better weather, easier to recruit, good facilities, better looking girls Downside: SEC competition is rough, fan base turns on its coaches with the drop of a hat/thinks the program is more historically relevant than it really is Quote Link to comment
Hujan Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I thought we were such a hell-hole of a coaching destination that no quality coaches would be willing to come here? At least, that's the self-deprecating BS being crammed down our throats by the "Bo-lievers." 1 Quote Link to comment
killer cacti Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I think Clemson's a pretty good draw. Hear me out... As HC, all you do is recruit and hire great coordinators to do all the coaching. Play in the ACC, so you don't have the competition, but definitely in SEC recruiting territory. In a college town, where all the businesses have to charge basically nothing because they're required to survive off the students...aka cost of living is nothing. Sure you won't make the most money out there, but damn...I could survive on 3.1 per year to recruit. 1 Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I would put Texas ahead of Alabama. Texas is the only school in the country where you can walk out your back door and accidentally bump into division one football athletes every few feet. Obvious exaggeration, but not even Alabama or other schools in the south are like that. There's so just so many kids and so many good football teams in Texas. That, coupled with the money they have, put them #1 in my eyes. 1 Quote Link to comment

So ultimately, you pretty much have to be an "outdoors person" to HC at Clemson. Whatever works. Quote Link to comment

Very hard to argue against Texas as #1... they can pretty much recruit their whole class year after year instate... Not to mention the $$ pull and Longhorn network. CFB as we know it could be over if these Saban to Texas rumors ever pan out. Quote Link to comment

Minnesota_husker Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 So since we are a top ten destination that means we can fire Bo and can get a real head coach right? Reported. Look out guys, we've got an internet funny guy here. Reported Quote Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Hmmm. Two SEC teams, Two Big 12 teams and Three Big 10 teams in the Top 10. Any chance this will quiet the ESPN conspiracy theorists? Didn't think so. The top four have warm weather and recruiting in common, probably not a coincidence. The other common denominator is prestige, at least 50 or 60 years worth, taking the hills and valleys into account. Oregon and Miami are relative upstarts, otherwise these are simply the most storied programs in college football history. Quote Link to comment
