You're insane if you can't see that there is a correlation between recruiting and top programs. Yes, there are exceptions, but if you give me a team full of 5 stars I will beat a team full of 3 stars 8 out of 10 times.

Georgia and Florida both have recruited well, and both have substandard years. On the flip side, Wisconsin and Michigan State were co-champs to Ohio State and did so with much lower ranked recruits.
