[quote]really don't know shit[/quote] FIFY [quote]football talent is overrated anyway due to the exposure to media they get from being so close to atl and a media hub[/quote] ???? So all those players that go on to the NFL because of Atlanta is a "media hub?" Is 24/7 based in Atlanta? ...

[quote]So given [b]the data[/b], you are more likely to get a D-1 offer from FL, [b]but more likely to get into the NFL from GA, LA, MS, AL.[/b] [/quote] The data is insufficient to make that conclusion. It's certainly possible but there many other variables other than population....

[quote]Back then, scheduling was unbalanced. Shug went 10-0 in 1957 and 9-0-1 in 1958. After Tech left conference, Auburn kept the game. In 1972, AU beat Bama head to head, however, technically Bama had one more win(over Vandy) and same amount of losses so they “won” the SEC.[/quote] And? ...

What part of that is difficult to understand? What percentage of Louisiana's population participates in HS FB compared to Florida? I would bet it's much higher. Its pretty easy to figure but I have to remind myself of who I'm responding to....

[quote]A football player from MS is more likely to be NFL Caliber, than a FL player, statistically speaking.[/quote] Just population without looking at age demographics and the number of participants is useless. Without that, your statement is garbage....

[quote]Using Ms St for the example with Dak Prescott and that team. Ranked #1 for how long with a average ranking class of 34-40? It matters a lot. [/quote] And that team beat zero top 25 teams and got boat raced by GT in. the Orange Bowl...

[quote]don't want to say it's worthless, but returning starters isn't all that in college football. I think Alabama generally ranks at the bottom and near dead last in that stat.[/quote] It much more important to a school like Iowa State (a place where they obviously don't rack up blue choppers e...

[quote]Bear struggled as well in '69 and '70. Got whooped by USC in the season opener.[/quote] Let's not forget that he beat USC on the road in '71.Didnt take em long to recover. I also think the "impact" of that game has been slightly exaggerated through the years. Integration was beginnin...

[quote]Dye went 6-6 vs Bama. Shug was bad vs Alabama.“ [/quote] And still more victories than Shug had over the Bear (5-13) [quote]Tell me which SEC coach had more wins against Bear Bryant than Shug. Let me help you there were none[/quote] Because he coached against him more years than an...

[quote]mean, its certainly a much better view than just looking at total #s.[/quote] But it still doesn't give you much to back up any type of point one way or another and in the end its the total number that matters the most anyway. I mean if you're a college recruiter with limited time and a...

[quote]Oh, guess what.. Alabama is has a bigger population than LA does, and SC has a lot more than either[/quote] Also depends on age demographics as well.Florida probably has highest percentage of elderly people by far over a state like Alabama or Florida and completely skews the "Per capita" ...

[quote]Doesnt know what "per capita" means[/quote] "Per capita" is a silly argument anyway.It should be per participant.It gives you a much clearer picture and Florida would probably be way out in front....
