[QUOTE="Cam, post: 279800, member: 568"] I heard for years that if you put Vanderbilt or Kentucky in the ACC Coastal they'd make it to the ACCCG every year, winning it a lot of times. Then there's the whole speculation of how the SEC would stack up against the NFL ("The AFC, NFC, and SEC."). Over a decade now of the SEC being constantly heralded as the best conference. It has an impact on recruiting for sure. You hear a lot from recruits about the "opportunity to play in the SEC." Like it's going to be a highlight of their life. It's always a recruiting point, we even say SEC-bound a lot for elite recruits now. Last year 11/14 SEC teams were rated in the top 30 for recruiting rankings. The lowest was Vanderbilt at 53 (GT at 59). Even using those as just vague estimates of talent, you can see how the SEC is usually head and shoulders above all other leagues (4/14 of ACC teams in top 30). We need sustained success against them like we have. We need to make it where the media can't deny that we're the best conference. It'll take a few years, but the coaching hires the ACC has made definitely show we are on the rise. As GT fans, we all know now that no Coastal game is a gimme anymore. That's good for our perception. Just need to keep it up. After the perception shifts, we'll see recruits talking more about "the opportunity to play in the ACC." [/QUOTE]
