[QUOTE="dressedcheeseside, post: 375717, member: 77"] To sell a product, it helps if your selling points are attractive to your targets. 1. We are in a P5 conference. How does that help us against other P5 schools? I sure hope we’re not targeting non-P5 recruits. 2. We are in Atlanta. So what? Every factory school in the country recruits Atlanta especially SEC and ACC factories who are in the region as well. This is no advantage. Starting left guard‘s for UGA and Auburn are both Atlanta products, I guess they should’ve been shoe-ins for GT being from Atlanta. Not. 3. We play marquee opponents. How does that help us recruit against those marquee opponents? Remember, we’re trying to attract four and five star players, not twos and threes just happy to be playing against fours and fives. 4. We offer a world-class education. How does that help us get the blue chips 95% of which don’t give hang about education? 5. We put players in the pros. Not nearly as many as the factories that we are trying to steal recruits from. We are behind the eight ball when it comes to recruiting blue-chip college football players. There’s no way to get around it. Maybe if we work harder and smarter and double our staff it might help a bit. [/QUOTE]
