What Bowl helps more in recruiting?

[VolzMan53]

I'm pretty sure losing or winning, no matter who it is against, has a negative or positive effect to some degree...The argument is.."how much effect" either has..

My sentiments exactly....a non denial denial !

If CJP and his staff could make the pick, I’m wondering if they might pick Nashville or Memphis instead of Tampa, Jacksonville, or Charlotte.
This is ONLY based on what is best for our current recruiting. Not prestige or climate considerations.
I think it might help to get some in state targets to come to our practices when we move from Knoxville to the bowl site. Or is that such a short period of time that it doesn’t really matter?
Somebody help me out here with that question.

Decent point. On paper, Liberty seems very undesirable, but camping out in Memphis for a week or so wouldn’t be all bad, in terms of reeling in a few of the guys we’re targeting to bring in. That being said, I’m still thinking Gator.

Since you're focusing on the effects bowls have on recruiting, ask the kids. "Given the choice, would you prefer to go to that school over there that plays winter-time bowl games in Nashville, or would you rather come to our school and travel to a Florida bowl in January?" What do you think an eighteen year-old recruit would say?

I think Texas is totally overrated year after year much like Michigan. OSU is full of studs and definitely not overrated.

Agreed - I stand corrected. I see the ‘overrated’ perspective of that original post now.

Bowl results are vastly overblown. It doesn't really matter either way.

The playoff has lead to basically all 10-2 and some 9-3 teams being disappointed they weren't in it.

 

[VOLUNTEERSZN]

No difference.
kids are gonna see every bowl that isn’t an NY6 or playoff game as the exact same

I don’t think which bowl game matters, a lot of the recruiting class will be signed by then.
The fact that we are going to a bowl is great for team development and good PR.

I vote for the Steak Bowl

Bowls are useless anymore. Little bit of money thrown at each school. But the real plus is all the extra practice time and instruction with the coaches.

Other than that they only real advantage to recruiting is making the college playoff games. That's the BIG STAGE!!

Not sure the pipeline connections this staff has in South Florida but id assume Tampa would be best place for recruiting visibility.

That's why the playoff needs to be expanded. First round of playoffs are the conference championship games. From there the winners of each conference advance. This can be easily achieved. They are lying by saying it can't. This method would just threaten the ever so corrupt college football.

Completely agree. I’d have to guess they do good but no harm in a recruit’s eyes though.

Doesn’t matter get to 8 wins ending the season on a 6 game winning streak IMO
