That's not a backpedal. It's pointing out that if Vandy was closing the gap in results with everyone else as much as they have with UT then our recruiting results would be much closer. Getting better, much better, results against one team will not overcome a bad history. Recruits, many of which are more intelligent than your average Ranter, can understand both concepts that UT no longer "owns" Vandy AND that UT is still currently more successful.

ETA: It should also be noted that I never said Vandy has surpassed UT in the rivalry or anything remotely close to that. I said that Vandy is closing the gap. Vandy's recruiting rankings are also going up, so the gap is closing there even if the recruiting gap is still massive while the on-field gap appears to be much smaller.
