re: Rate the SEC coaches -again

Holtz was way past his prime when he got to South Carolina. The program was in horrid shape. At one point, they lost 21 games in a row. Still, Holtz got South Carolina to finish as high as 13th in the polls within three years. Now imagine a superior coach taking over that program in far better shape. Saban would be successful there especially with the SEC East being as down as it is.

South Carolina has no tradition, not a ton of in state talent, and is surrounded from bigger programs from two major conferences. I am sorry, but it is asking a shite ton for them to suddenly be competing for SEC titles with great programs like UGA, UT, and UF in the east. Also the LSU, Auburn, and Bama programs are also light years ahead in the west. They are below Arkansas as a program and competing with Ole Miss. I think it would be extremely difficult for any coach. Saban and Spurrier are HOF type coaches and you don't fall out of your prime as a coach. You simply lose your passion. I don't think either Holtz or Spurrier coached/coach without passion at USC.

A coach doesn't fricking for get how to coach. Why do people think that. It is one of those things you can do until you almost die as long as the passion is there.
