[QUOTE="Legal Jacket, post: 209845, member: 601"] Last point - I don't see how money is supposed to really help us in recruiting, i.e. how spending the most translates into having the best recruits. You could give Rice $100 million to spend on recruiting and it probably wouldn't affect the end result very much, especially if you are just looking at 4 and 5 star guys. Our problem, as it has been, is that we don't play in the SEC (where just about everyone wants to play these days); we don't have an 80-90k person stadium; even if we did - we don't have nearly enough fans to come close to filling that stadium; our rivals - e.g. clemson and uga - routinely bring more fans into our stadium for game day than we do; we don't have joke majors that some students want; we don't have real majors that some students want; we don't have a flashy coach that some players want. At the end of the day, the kid who wants to play in front of 90k fans or in the SEC isn't going to choose us. No amount of money is going to change that fact. I'd love to see someone to a graph with average star rating plotted against stadium size or average attendance. [/QUOTE]
