Maybe you are not familiar with college football. Fielding competitive teams requires recruiting. Recruiting requires access to actual talent. Anyone evaluating programs, performance, and potential would look at the real recruiting base for a program. Iowa State basically has none. It is...

If you think WSU is empirically a tougher job than ISU, OK. As I said, it is arguable. Pullman v. Ames? I don't see the point. You aren't recruiting 30-60,000 person areas. And when did Des Moines become a recruiting hotbed? Iowa v. Washington, which state would you rather recruit...

Still waiting for that list. And please focus on the last century. Yeah, again, that is what I thought.

That was insightful. Would you rather have Tenessee or Iowa as your recruiting base? Would you rather fight over the scraps in Georgia or Minnesota? Yeah, that is what I thought.

OK, make a list. I see one coach in ISU history in that conversation. You act like it is easy to win at ISU.

Oklahoma State has access to Texas and far more money from Boone Pickens. WSU is in the conversation for the worst Power 5 job, in fact I think it is the parallel. I referred to ISU as arguably the worst power 5 job. Was your post just to make my point for me?
