Because, if people were really being honest here and acknowledging how the landscape of college football is shifting, historical records means absolutely nothing.

Zero, zip, nada.

Tennessee has not been relevant in a quarter century but most folks would argue that they have one of the more admirable longer term program histories.

USC's Hesiman Winners and gloried history don't translate to much these days.

Nebraska. . . .nuff said.

Places like Miami and Florida State were total backwaters until the 1980s when they got real programs were created.


Any school with resources, focus, and appeal to recruits has a shot at building something special.

I agree. What you did last season or over the past 100 seasons means nothing. What matters is what you have today and what you do with it. Texas A&M is top 10 in the country in talent. It's a pretty prestigious university that has shown itself willing to do whatever it takes to win. What coach doesn't want that kind of support? Start with the guns loaded and raise some cane.
