Better Job: Arizona State or Nebraska?

[Red_Alert]

This isn't a one year thing and it isn't new. Again -- you are forgiven though as a Nebraska fan, I'm sure you haven't paid much attention to bowl season, as you haven't been to one in a while. Georgia has been pretty going on 6 years now.

Again.... You're attracted to shiny new objects in saying "Georgia is the new Alabama". That "ONLY Georgia can compete with Alabama going forward".

I note that you left off the 2016 (8-5) season with all that "rich talent".

In 2017 Georgia lost to Auburn 40 - 17 (23 pts) and beat them Ta-da in the CCG rematch.
yeah, that's the same Auburn that lost to UCF
In 2018 Georgia lost to LSU 36-16 (20 pts), and lost to 4 loss tejas in the Sugar Bowl.
In 2019 Georgia lost to (4-8) South Carolina, and lost 37-10 (27 pts) to LSU in the CCG.
In 2020 Georgia lost to Alabama 41-24 (17 pts), and to Florida 44-28 ( 16 pts)

But you got your shiny new bulldog balls to slobber on in a 2021 rematch with Alabama.

You're a simpleton.

Yes -- it was the first year Kirby Smart took over the program. It is the same reason Saban went 7-6 in his first year at Alabama or 8-5 in his first year at LSU.

Again -- not something that should have to be explained, but I'm starting to understand you are a little slow and need everything spelled out for you.

There you go again.

Kirby Smart took over a 10-3 Georgia team and went 8-5.

Nick Saban took over a 6-7 Alabama team and went 7-6
Nick Saban took over a 3-8 LSU team and went 8-4

But....

GeOrGiA = AlAbAmA

It is to simply show you even the best coaches need time to bring in their recruits and implement their systems.
I can understand why you wouldn't grasp this concept. You don't even know what an elite recruiting class looks like anymore.

Nebraska's NEVER had an elite recruiting class to my knowledge. Not even in the Devaney/Osborne eras.

I've seen elite recruiting classes at tejas, USC, Florida, Florida St, etc. over the last 10+ years...

Is it those you refer to?

Again Short Bus -- how many times does it need to be said in this thread alone until you grasp this.

Did you miss where I said you need the coach and the talent rich state

I've said a million times it takes a talent rich state, elite recruiting and finding the right coach.

You see -- schools like Texas, like USC, like Florida. They are a coach away from having a shot to return to elite status. Why? Because they are in states where they can sign elite recruiting classes.

It is why Nebraska, with no in state talent and no talent in surrounding states will ever be able to recruit like the elite programs. Hell -- you will never be able to recruit like Michigan, let alone the elite programs right now.

Nebraska's NEVER had an elite recruiting class to my knowledge

Again -- maybe the state of Nebraska is still stuck in the 1970's........I don't know? But the rest of the US has completely changed. When Nebraska was elite -- they were the first and one of the few programs to take strength and conditioning serious.

In 1969, Nebraska became the first school in the nation to hire a strength coach and lift weights in season when former football coach Bob Devaney appointed Epley, a pole vaulter on the Nebraska track and field team, to begin a strength and conditioning program.

Guess what? You no longer have the huge advantage -- why? Because they have it at the high school level and kids have their own personal strength and conditioning coaches.

Also, this new thing called the internet came about and all of a sudden, the days of a recruit slipping thru the cracks are over. Coaches can now contact recruits any time they want. They can watch any game they'd like. It is why..................wait for it...................having a talent rich state of recruits who grew up dreaming of playing for the school they grew up rooting for is so enormous now and such a huge advantage.

How about this -- if Nebraska goes and signs a big name coach to take over their program -- I will never say another word about Nebraska. I bet you they won't though. You won't see them do what A&M did to get Fisher. You won't see them do what USC did to get Riley. You won't see them do what LSU did to get Kelly. NO ELITE COACH is going there, because they are way behind in recruiting as soon as they step on campus.

 

[Red_Alert]

You know you're up against a simpleton when they have to inject Nebraska's failures into their argument that "Georgia is the new Alabama".

I reiterate....

Simply pointing out facts. Don't let them get in the way of your story telling.

Yeah, that's just a given. Look I went to Vanderbilt. I would have put our first string up against Bama, Auburn, and UGA. But we all knew that we had little depth compared to those schools. It's a depth issue. I am sure there are some hit chicks at NE, it's a college after all. You just don't have the depth.
