Tennessee is close to a couple of areas with tons of talent.  All of the south has talent.  Not as much as Florida and Texas, but close.  When Tennessee is rocky, they have a ton of kids from Georgia, next door.  Ohio and Pennsylvania are also not too far away.  Tons of talent there.  Weather is not as good as the deep south, but not as bad as Nebraska.

I mentioned it is easier to recruit there in a few posts back. I guess some people don't do research anymore? On another note, Tennessee wants the right coach. If they go hard after SF, I wonder if Moos and Nebraska backs off. Can we really afford to get into a bidding war with them? Or are we willing to for that matter?

The recruiting aspect of it, TN has far more advantages than us however, it's not his alma mater. So I think if we do butt heads with the Vols, we'll have the upper hand. Of course the job would need to be open at DONU. Everything is pure speculation at this point.

I didn't say it was impossible to get a top 10 class. Go back and read what I said. It isn't the EASIEST place to recruit to. You can't just get in a car and half multiple 4-stars within a day drive for multiple schools like you can at Miami or Texas or Florida and others like USCw. 

The eastern part of TN doesn't produce much for football recruits. There aren't at on of recruits in TN on an annual basis and programs like Bama go hard at the same places in TN as TN does for their in-state recruiting. 

If you want an easy recruiting spot for an SEC job, you go to LSU or Florida.

Lets see if I have this right. So the talking heads were making excuses for the next coach coming in case they couldn't recruit as well as Fulmer. However, the next few coaches were able to recruit at the same standard even though there has been little stability at the HC position and they haven't had much success on the field.

You aren't comprehending the topic. You have to bring kids to you like most schools in the country do from outside your area, much more so than places like Florida, Miami, USCw, etc.

Let's not go there. It's over and done with, right? Obviously we couldn't put up with it any longer and his reputation here has hurt him career wise. Time to move on.

Have you ever been to Knoxville before? I can drive to Knoxville from my house in Northern Ohio within 6 hours. I can get there from Cincinnati in under 4 hours. There is a lot of football talent in that radius. VA, NC, SC, GA, FL, AL, MS, KY, OH

Just because you can drive x miles within daylight time doesn't mean you can visit multiple schools throughout a day and see multiple prospects like you can at a USCw, Florida, and the likes. You still have to go outside of your immediate area.

Have you driven in LA? Plus isn't that what a private jet is for?

In terms of what we expect of Nebraska football, it's not over and done with at all. 

Not so much the a-hole part. The winning part. 

It's also relevant to how college football views the Nebraska job. Frank Solich and Tom Osborne aren't over and done with, either.

The state of Texas has 313 composite 3-stars ore higher. 313 vs 50......

Thus, the state of Texas alone has enough 3-stars or higher to fill up 12 FBS rosters for a full 25 recruiting class if every one of them stayed in their state.
