Both are located in states rich with talent (although Georgia is slightly better), both have contiguous states rich in talent (Florida and Texas), and both don't really have major power 5 competition within their respective states. I'm going to go with Georgia simply because Georgia is in the East.

Georgia is probably better for a few reasons, but who fricking cares? they're both top 10 jobs, so it's a wash.

I would argue that players taken in the draft and on NFL rosters makes Louisiana the better spot for in state talent.

Georgia is probably better for longevity being in the East.

It's an almost impossible question to ask, because it depends on how one defines "best job". Some might consider quality of life, place to live, etc., etc.

At the moment, working for Joe Alleva...or his unknown successor...is a negative when comparing the two. It's hard to call LSU the better job right now when even LSU fans seem to agree that you would be working for the village idiot. And if and when he gets fired, who's to say that his replacement wouldn't be an a-hole?

When you consider one job over another, how many of us wouldn't consider who our boss would be? Right now, advantage Georgia.

What we have here is an insecure opinion stated as a question by someone unable to accept anything less than complete validation.

In some ways Georgia and in some ways LSU.

Louisiana has the highest NFL talent per capita in the country battling it out often every year with Mississippi and South Carolina and usually coming out on top. However, Georgia often isnt far behind. I think what gives LSU a slight edge here is that they have no in-State competition for those recruits like UGA has(GTech) and their State doesnt get ravaged as much by out-of-state schools like the State of Georgia does.

Also, those LA recruits are more loyal to LSU than GA recruits are to UGA. That wasnt always the case but it has been since DiNardo/Saban to LSU and Richt to GA, respectively.

One big plus for Georgia is that while the per capita numbers favor LA for percentage of recruits the overall numbers greatly favor GA because Georgia is just a much more populous State. 4 million to 10.3 million.



Id say fan and facility support is probably about even between the schools.

Ive always thought both schools were sleeping giants and could never understand why they werent more successful. Both schools should dominate their respective divisions and see each other in the SECCG nearly every year. It goes to show how much coaching matters.

I know a lot of people have been downvoted for pointing this out but playing in the East certainly gives GA an edge at least lately. Of course that can change in the future as the East has been really dominate in certain eras.

The thing with UGA, though, is they have a lot more competition for their talent, like from AU and UT for instance. LSU has traditionally locked down the state of LA (with a few recruits here and there slipping out). UGA has never "locked down" the state of GA.
