[QUOTE="WreckedbyWhiskey, post: 279804, member: 2566"] I agree with you on the point that if the ACC keeps winning then we'll get better at recruiting but kids want to play in the SEC for a totally different reason. I hate to say this but it's not about actually winning, its more about perception. Even during eras when teams like Bama, Auburn and Ugag are terrible, historically they still dominate the recruiting game. Like Apple, it's not the best phone, doesn't have the best functionality but it's PERCEIVED as cool/the best and everyone buys-into this. Kids want to play for the SEC b/c they get to play in front of crowds of 100K+ where fans are literally willing to commit crimes over the love for their team (I'm exaggerating a bit here). Whereas, if they played in the ACC, they'd play in front of 60-70K on average, the atmosphere isn't as exciting or rowdy. It's the perception of the brand that we should make adjustments for in the ACC. [/QUOTE]
