    What in the hell are you even talking about? You think that head coaches in college have little to do with recruiting. I think that is an asinine statement. Believe whatever you want bro.

    Do You people always overstate everything I say??
    Like last year, I said the Defense of the Steelers was good, and somehow everyone, without being able to find where I said it, said I said they were elite. No freaking where did I once say they don't recruit. I said they don't recruit all of their players. If You think they come, and visit 105 players, and meet with their parents, and used to be a lower amount back in the day, you guys are misinformed.
    Why don't you people stop making stuff up about what I said. Again I said they aren't the only recruiters, I never said they didn't do any recruiting. Reading isn't hard.

    Do your research Yes your examples of billionaires is fine
    But look at the rankings to see which teams are funding these NIL figures .I think you will be surprised.

    It doesn't matter because neither is recruiting in the top 10 anyway

    Franklin left Vandy to be at the big boy table. He has not delivered, and in embarrassing fashion. PSU gets the talent to stay ahead of a lot of programs just based on being PSU. I don't know, but I'm fairly certain due to how things have gone, that he was given a list of expectations and probably an ultimatum. I'm a little surprised, but I am not shocked.

    I don't know the exact rankings. The last 5 years PSU recruiting has been ranked top15 though. That's better than a lot of schools.
