Who would want to follow the GOAT?

It won't be anyone you want. Look at Miami in the 90s-00s. You think Larry Coker was who they wanted?

Or Nebraska after Osbourne. They were ready to fire Solich after a 10 win season.

Coker was cheap and Miami is/was in financial ruin. Facilities are still garbage. That's one program with different leadership and support would be just dominant.

You think Donna fricking Shalala is the president of the University of Alabama?

Miami doesn't have anywhere near the amount of resources that Bama has. They hired Coker because he was the cheapest guy they could get. Also, they struggled in the '90s because they got hammered by the NCAA after the Pell Grant scandal. Once the sanctions wore off, it didn't take long for them to become dominant again.
