It requires both elite recruiting and coaching


Nobody is arguing it's not best to have both. The discussion is if you can only have one which is more important.

The A&M example is flimsy because their one truly elite class were only true freshmen last year. That said, they definitely are underachieving because they still had solid recruiting in the years prior.

Using 247 Composite they had 4 top 10 classes. Under performed any way you look at it.

Fresh water/ diamonds. both good to have, one is at a premium (by a wide margin).

We are talking the level and consistency of UGA, UA, and OSU. Spot on about Richt and not getting elite talent.

Plenty of Saban assistants / "developers" have gone on to be not great at all (even more so than a lack of talent would suggest). The one that has succeeded, yes, "elite talent" is the difference.

If the discussion is if you can only pick one you don’t really want an elite program at Auburn. Our discussion should be, how can we have both?

Silly discussion otherwise and one that happens annually. We need both and that’s the fact.
