[QUOTE="CrackerJacket, post: 709854, member: 712"] Leaving the SEC was a mistake because there was no viable destination plan in place. Trying to be the ND of the South was a non-starter. My freshman year was 1971, and by then our facilities were significantly inferior to those of our former SEC rivals. I visited friends at FL, TN, and GA over the next year or so and was shocked at the differences between what their SAs and our SAs had to train and practice on. This would have magnified any recruiting disadvantages due to our limited # of available degree programs and tough course work. Bottom line IMO is that leaving the SEC made us less competitive in general. We’d still have gotten hammered by most SEC rivals, but we’d have had more & deeper athletic talent. Don’t see how this would have compromised the rigor of our curricula. [/QUOTE]
