[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 917509, member: 282"] In 2021, you had Bama, UGA, Cincinnati, and Michigan. It was one of those years with 4 teams, but it could have just been two teams. I agree that Cincinnati was a sweetheart team because they were G5, but Baylor and Ohio State and Notre Dame didn’t deserve to be in more that Cincinnati. Alabama would have crushed whoever they faced 3-25 (or 3-131). I’m not sure that Michigan deserved it that much more than Cincinnati, or that changing the semifinals around would have changed much unless Bama and UGA played in the first round. I just think it’s a faster path to get Tech watchable again by focusing on coaching than on recruiting. We’re not outbidding Texas or Texas A&M for 5* athletes. This isn’t new either, it’s just MORE than it was 25 years ago. If you look at the chart like a map, I just think it’s easier for a school like Tech to sweep out to the right and play good football first and build recruiting off of playing well than to take the same path that Texas or Texas A&M is of leading with recruiting. Unless we get a lot of real estate magnates and oil barons in our next graduating classes, that’s not our path. I don’t think we have to play a scheme like Leach does, but even Kentucky figured out how to make the most of where they are (so much so that they’re complaining they don’t win enough now). I don’t think Kentucky is playing the same game that UGA is—they aren’t pulling in top 5 classes every year—but they’re a really good team now. [/QUOTE]
