So contrary to popular belief Richt could develop talent...hmmm

Not sure where I stated this (or if this was even directed at me at all). Generally speaking, my point was Richt was able to grab a fair amount top tier talent but was unable to win the big games with them. I'd say that would point to an inability to obtain maximum results, which is pretty much defined by player development. No one ever said Richt did "no developing", simply that what he was doing was insufficient to win on the biggest stages. Couple that with usually at least one glaring deficiency from a player personnel standpoint and you have what amounts to an achilles heel the size of the grand canyon and a neon sign pointing it out.
