[QUOTE="4shotB, post: 648146, member: 844"] "physical superiority cancels out all other theories" . "Jimmy's and Joe's beat X's and O's". Like many platitudes, they exist for a reason. Talent alone as your post indicates isn't enough and may not overcome coaching deficiencies. But your talent sets a limit on what your program can achieve. The best programs (the ones that are always in the hunt for the playoffs do both things equally well. And are at places that have the resources to ensure that the coaching and recruiting are done well. It is a 3 leggest stool imo. My other thought and I have said it elsewhere, a total class ranking is not in and of itself a good indicator. If you sign 20 Trevor Lawrence or Calvin Johnsons or Herschel Walkers this year you are going to have a great recruiting class on paper....but 4 years down the road you are going to have a bad team. There is a synergy element that isn't taken into account - are you recruiting well at all positions.?I think FSU and Miami have had really bad OL's these past few years that have undone some of their skill position recruiting according to some experts. Or ttake Miami yesterday, the lack of recruiting 1 position (FG kicker) cost them a game. All needs have to be met, not just a few or some. [/QUOTE]
