[QUOTE="Vespidae, post: 1000582, member: 2957"] I hate these comparisons. People jump on Wake Forest bearing Vandy as evidence of conference domination. I would buy the comparison if you looked at the top of each conference and the record between those. Then, track it over time. These days, a coach has to build a team from scratch and whats going to help here is massive resources. Finebaum made a comment yesterday that was interesting. Basically, Fox and ESPN want 32 teams, each with 80,000+ stadiums, huge fanbases that make for media people want to watch. That’s the new product and that’s what being marketed. And … you are either building programs to do that or you are not. Nick Saban made an excellent quote recently: "What we have now is not college football – not college football as we know it," he said. "You hear somebody use the word 'student-athlete.' That doesn't exist." I read so many posts and shake my head. We are all complaining about yesterday’s college football. Me included. It’s gone. [/QUOTE]
