I hate it when people say most wanted Gruden. I, like many others, wanted Strong. With that said, I'm 100% happy with CBJ. I wanted someone who hadn't done it at another school. Someone to buy in to VOLS football. I think we have him in CBJ. I don't know if he could love rcokytop anymore if he had went here.
Great post OP
I wouldn't get too carried away. Remember Terry Bowden.
Says the guy from alabammer.. Funny you also mention an Auburn coach.
Let's see...Dooley's recruiting went like this in national rankings...
9 (half Kiffin) 13 17 21 (actually Butch, but started by Dooley)
Steadily down hill...Baby Bowden was known as a coach who won with Dye's recruits and then started losing when those were gone.
Butch is currently no. 2 in recruiting.
What a terrible analogy! Now go sit in the den with your stuffed elephants and STFU.
