He won't have those at Auburn though, which is the bigger point.
nobody in the country has such a large talent disparity other than Bama but teams other than Bama have won a title in the last 10 years, with Auburn making 2 appearances.
Bama is such an absolute anomaly, that fans think other teams wont win unless they recruit like them. That isnt always the case.

Boloney. Say it as often as you like, the talent level between BAMA vs Georgia has been a wash for a number of years. The same for Ohio State, Clemson, Oklahoma, TAMU now, and historically LSU.
BAMA has a player development disparity. After 14 years you ought to at least know why you are getting your head handed to you.

Boise has a GIANT discrepancy with the rest of the Mountain West. Honestly, probably higher than Alabama has within the SEC. Georgia recruits at basically the same level as Alabama and LSU is pretty close behind.
Boise finished 1st in the MWC every year from 2016-2020 in recruiting. Nobody was even close behind them.
From 2016-2020 Boise State finished #1 in the Mountain West in recruiting every year by at least 8 spots.
Average Mountain West Recruiting Rank (2016-2020)
1. Boise State (#62)
2. San Diego State (#85)
3. Colorado State (#86)
4. Fresno State (#90)
5. UNLV (#96)
6. Nevada (#99)
7. Utah State (#103)
8. San Jose State (#104)
9. Hawaii (#106)
10. New Mexico (#110)
11. Wyoming (#111)
12. Air Force (#112)
The talent differential between Boise State and the rest of the MWC was absolutely on par with Alabama and the rest of the SEC, and in reality it was bigger. Alabama has peers in terms of depth of talent in the SEC, or close to it. Boise did not.
