A Winning Program Would Fix Everything


Obviously, winning makes recruiting easier, and we have a chicken and egg issue here. How do you recruit better; by winning. How do you win more; by recruiting better.

But I don't really think Blacksburg is the problem. Is Blacksburg really all that much different than Clemson, SC? Have you been to South Bend, IN? How about State College, PA? Yet top recruits go to those place every year. Those towns aren't hotbeds of anything ... except winning football programs.

The college football landscape can change quickly. I know there are always going to be 10 or so big schools that are always top tier - like Alabama, Ohio State, Clemson, Georgia, etc., but after that, many of the consistent names in the top 20 were not there 10 years ago. And others that used to be there all the time rarely rise that high anymore. I'd say a school like Nebraska is facing the same issues as Tech. You fall off the hot list and the climb back up is not easy. But I just don't see Blacksburg as a problem.
