This is the grand ole question Does the coach make the players better or do the players make the coach look like a genius.

It is a combination. As long as a coach recruits with the scheme, or is willing to change the scheme for the recruits he has, he will look like a genius.

The way recruiting is now, a coach better be willing to change schemes. It is all about winning the recruiting title now. It doesn't seem to matter if the player fits as long as he comes with stars next to his name.

At LSU Saban was king until he didn't go after RP. When Miles got him I remember a lot of fans saying it would be ok if he had a sub par first year just becausehe was able to get RP.

We all know how that turned out.
