[QUOTE="Jean-Baptiste Rochambeau, post: 48337, member: 1017"] The analysis presented is relying on a comparison being made that cannot and should not be made. You cannot compare CPJ's performance in 2010 thru 2013 with Dodd's of the late forties or Curry's of the early 1980's. There is no comparison. The stars, the All-Americans, of Dodd's era could not make this year's team. Some of Dodd's teams were in the age of players playing both ways. You'll never convince me that Bud Carson couldn't coach, but he followed Dodd and could not replicate Dodd's signature performance, i.e. 7-3. I read recently something that came as news to me. Pepper's DC., alum Franklin Brooks, would have taken over when Rodgers was canned instead of Bill Curry had he not gotten cancer. Wonder how that would have changed things? Comparison of sports across the eras is an a musing pastime, but it should never be used to make conclusions on the relative merits of the different times. [/QUOTE]
