WRT, that's actually a legitimate post. We have the position to put it together, but not the facilities or the history to really do so. The right coach (if we could find a Saban like LSU did) came around, it's possible.

I'm not holding my breath on that though.

I do think it's easier to win at Lsu than Ole Miss. I also don't think Saban is that special of a recruiter. I think he's got alot of credibilty now b/c he's been in the NFL and also won a National Championship. That does appeal to kids. Lsu made him good but they were a sleeping giant when he got there. He was pretty mediocre in the NFL. Nutt recruited the state of Arkansas as well or better than Saban did Louisana but La has 5x as many players.

I think if both Nutt and Saban went to a foreign land to recruit kids that knew nothing about them and it was equal playing field, Nutt could sell better and evaluate as good.
