I don't recall you being one of them, but there were a lot of hog posters laughing last of season whenever AU fans claimed superior talent.
Definitely not speaking directly about you, because I actually think you're easily one of the better Aubie posters (lack of flames). I was just using your data to point out how ridiculous SOME people are for comparing Bielema's 1st year to Gus. It just isn't an equitable comparison because of the talent/system differences between the two.
The only argument I might have made last off-season, that I can remember, was that star ratings very likely indicate Auburn is more talented, but it's not a definitive measure. Attrition and whatnot, development, etc.
