[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 858164, member: 1640"] I think that is right. Friedgen’s multiple option offense with a mobile quarterback (when most teams were pocket passers) threw wrinkles at teams they were not used to. Watching Jones run wild on Nebraska in passing situations set up every other play and won us a national championship. The data certainly seems to prove that recruiting rankings (unless you’re a top 10 class) have virtually nothing to do with a winning record. Coaching is the deciding factor for most mortal teams. Gailey was brought to Tech for 3 reasons. He had good relationships with high school coaches across the state, his pro credentials meant he would attract players with NFL aspirations, and he was a top notch recruiter. All those are good things but if you lack offensive imagination and don’t get the most out of your talent the results will be below expectation. [/QUOTE]
