Any school can be a dumpster fire very quickly with the wrong coach.

ETA: Most flagship-aggie schools are in separate systems


Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, Colorado, Louisiana, Michigan, Texas, and Washington have separate systems.

California, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma (technically, OSU is part of 2 systems, one of which, OU is a member of), Oregon, and Utah have all of their public schools under one system.

8 have separate systems, 9 don't.

Sure, but Florida, SC, UCLA, FSU, and Miami have shown they are just as dependent as the rest, not a matter of "the program" leading to success.

It was surprising just how quick Florida fell under Zook.

Who says a private school can't be big bro of the state?

Indiana and Utah as examples.

For the state of Florida, it is simple. A population boom happened. The state of Florida nearly doubled in population between 1970 and 1990.

Seeing you are in DC, I will explain that the southern part of the country believes in free speech.

Maybe YOU should get out of the kitchen!

There was more to it than that, coaches were able to keep the instate talent (ie LSU in the 90s).

Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Nebraska were dominate forces with low populations.

It is quite coincidental then, that the Florida schools started to win more when the population of the state exploded after 1970. They finally attracted solid coaches because the potential for tremendous recruiting resources was there.

Who is the big bro in Indiana? Notre Dame? IU-Bloomington still runs that shite regardless of the piss-colored dome.

I don't think that the UF administration really cared about football all that much back then either.

Nebraska prospered from signing partial qualifiers from around the country.

When that went away their program became more ordinary.

The frick does free speech have to do with this?

Yes, Maroon Flash, you have the freedom to say the stupid shite you do, just as I have the freedom to point out that you say stupid shite.

In football? ND without a doubt.

Basketball? IU

It is similar to North Carolina where one school decided to focus on Basketball when they were well behind in football. NC-State was the first to "give up" on football and focus on basketball, FWIW, obviously that didn't work out well for them with UNC and the smaller schools (Duke, WF) being able to be more than competitive.

Other than the fact that UC-Berkely is the flagship of the system UCLA is a member of, you'd be completely correct.

Telling people you are going to RA them until they are banned sounds like something I would expect out of the IRS or maybe a Greenpeace Lawyer.

Okay, great. Still doesn't have a goddamned thing to do with the freedom of speech.

Black Bears are sensitive.

They let the longwhorns push their shite in, then SEC people in Texas had to endure listening to the longwhorns brag about what the did to the SEC.

Black Bears need to show up for the game this year.
