This thread, and the many accurate and thoughtful comments contained therein, offers pretty overwhelming testimony for how difficult a task it is to remain at the top in this sport for a long period...and, therefore, what an amazing accomplishment has been achieved by Geno & Co. Of course, success breeds success, making it easier for folks like Geno (and others) to keep attracting the top-tier players, but even those who manage to get to the top level are so vulnerable to devastating losses through graduation that long-maintaining the lofty status they labored so hard to achieve is terribly difficult if not virtually impossible. Of the lists presented here, I am particularly impressed with how decimating a blow will be dealt to Texas, though certainly the same fate will befall others. Still, this is just one additional feature that makes college sports so much more interesting than pro ball. A change in fortunes, one way or the other, may be just around the corner...for everyone!
