Better Head Coaching Job to Have? Florida or Georgia

Hard to say. Florida is by far the #1 state in the country for recruits, but they have to share it with Miami and Florida State (and other out of state schools that recruit Florida heavily). Georgia is not too shabby either, probably the #4 state, and the other Power Five in-state school is Tech who doesn't recruit as well as Florida's in-state rivals. That said, UGA has to defend against Clemson, Alabama, Auburn, and Tennessee who all recruit very well from Georgia.

As far as facilities and fan support go, both schools are in an excellent position.

I am inclined to say UGA, but I know that that is just my homerism speaking, so I won't do that. Instead, I will say that both schools are practically unlimited in terms of their potential ceilings, but a coach may have to work a bit harder in recruiting to build an elite team at UGA by keeping neighboring schools at bay in Georgia and picking up guys from out of the state more often than Florida does.

Georgia. Less competition in the state, and a way better town.

Florida has more HS recruits, and more recent success, but has to put up with everyone coming into their state to recruit plus the other two P5 schools. UGA doesn’t really have to even compete with Ga Tech for in state talent, and it’s still a very talented state for football, and Athens being right next to Atl is just the cherry on top.

Pretty even overall. Both have advantages and very few disadvantages.

Georgia gets Auburn every year.


Florida gets LSU.


Georgia is clearly better for this alone

I don't know about "easily." I think it's basically a push, but Florida has been both smarter and luckier since the 90s.

Georgia, Their fans and everyone else expects less of them. Florida not so much.

Georgia by far! Tons of advantages & perks that put UGA ahead.

Also, for as much crap as I give UGA fans cause I'm an arse like that, it's only a matter of time before Kirby wins it all... That pumpkin pie hair-cutted freak has recruited lights out... Is a defensive mastermind and is the only team that truly worries me when we play them...

Yes you do, but you may have redeemed yourself with this post.

That said, Alabama administration supports their football program like no other, and that means a ton.

Athens is a lot nicer than Gainesville. Athens very close to Atlanta. Georgia should be the top team in the SEC... they have not been and they are not. There is a lot of competition for Georgia and Florida talent. Texas and California would argue about who has the most D1 players. All great states for college football.
