[QUOTE="Whiskey_Clear, post: 48341, member: 735"] It is hard to compare across eras and and attempt to demonstrate certain parallels. Single platoon football vs two platoon is a great point. Dodd was able to compete at a very high level with single platoons. He was not as able to do so in the two platoon system. It's just much harder for us to get the large number of quality players to compete against the factories. Single platoon ball was more similar to basketball in that regard. I'm not saying Dodd didn't have inherent recruiting disadvantages even in single platoon. I believe even then he competed with a talent gap many years. This just became exasperated when team sizes doubled with two platoon football. The comparisons are still insightful however. We just have to realize that certain parallels can't be made. [/QUOTE]
