Are you seriously arguing that it is easier to recruit consistent talent to BYU over TCU, across the board? I can accept in certain positions that the LDS base supports but not in the skilled positions. I still recall you once taking a stand that the Renfro kid was much better than Mackay Jacobsen and that TCU will always outrecruit BYU for skill players. Can a brother know which side you stand upon?

Renfro was rated higher by the Dallas Morning News. However now as a RS Frosh, he is not on the two-deep, and has not accrued a statistic. TCU recruits on the strength of Patterson. BYU recruits on the strength of BYU. You could make Lance Reynolds the coach after the season and recruiting would be close to the same. Advantage Bronco, in terms of ease of recruiting. |

Perhaps I am mistaken, but I recall you once taking a stand that the scraps from Texas are much better than the top talent from Utah. Once again, can you take a stand and explain why you are on whatever side you are on because I am getting confused. Most of your arguments would seem to indicate that it would be easier in Texas, but then you are claiming it is easier for Bronco, who coaches in Utah. You have yet to explain why it would be easier for Bronco except that BYU recruits to its strength. Are you saying that BYU should be better because of its strength with Utah studs being better than Texas scraps in the trenches? Are you really sure you wanna take this stand?

BYU has an easier time recruiting because of its institutional strength and tradition.
An example would be Rutgers and Notre Dame. ND will recruit better than Rutgers, even if Rutgers doesn't lose another game, and ND doesn't win a game the rest of the season. Btw, there is no law in Texas that says Texas recruits must stay in Texas. Texas recruits go all over the country. OU, UT, A&M are just the locals in line. Of the top 100 Texas recruits this year, only 3 have committed to non-BCS schools--one each to Houston, North Texas, and TCU. The only reason North Texas is on the list is because the recruit is the coach's son. The one TCU recruit is ranked 92nd, lest we are under the illusion that this is a top 20 recruit. Did you notice which school dominates the list? Hint: it's not in Texas. Unfortunately the top 100 for Utah only displays the top 10. How many of these players have committed to a BCS school? Zero. You still want to argue that TCU has it easier? TCU with its empty stadium, with it's commuter students? |

another thing to remember Goat, is that Bronco's only real marquee win is over....Patterson and TCU in 2006.
if you read Patterson's bio, his win over BYU does not figure nearly as prominently. |

btw, according to this website, Bronco and Patterson make the same amount of $. Just under $1 million per year.

I am not going to research, but from my memory Patterson's best win was CSU. I know he beat Oklahoma but didn't the Sooners finish that year at about .500? So if Patterson's best win, with a 5 year head start on Bronco, is beating a ranked MWC team just as Bronco's is, why is it relevant that Bronco's was Patterson? Further, Bronco's low, the 2005 year, is nowhere near the low that Patterson's 2004 club hit.
