Message: [QUOTE="Rooster C., post: 4595202, member: 10168"] Here's something to chew on (and I usually get grief for claiming Top-100 recruits matter). Of the top 7 players (starting 5 plus main 2 reserves) on each team: 1)South Carolina has 7 Top 100 (#2,#3,#4,#5,#10,#11,#47) 2)Ohio State has 6 Top 100 (#23,#24,#33,#42,#44,#59) 3)Louisville has 6 Top 100 (#7,#18,#19,##30,#35,#66) 4)Maryland has 6 Top 100 (#17,#22,#48,#49,#54,#86) 5)LSU has 5 Top 100 (#2,#20,#24,#26,#48) 6)Tennessee has 5 Top 100 (#2,#5,#37,#43,#45) 7)Iowa has 3 Top 100 (#4,#45,#84) 8)Virginia Tech has 3 Top 100 (#33,#41,#100) 9)Illinois has 3 Top 100 (#53,#65,#95) 10)Ole Miss has 2 Top 100 (#15 and #50) 11)Miami has 1 Top 100 (#79) So which coach has done the most with the least to work with? I think the answer is obvious. While I agree that going undefeated is a rare feat having an abundance of top tier talent certainly makes it more achievable. Geno has said as much himself. I think Colorado and Utah are teams that should be considered as well for their coaching. [/QUOTE]
