All 100% facts....I've talked about this with Butch ad nauseum. Best Evaluator, Recruiter and developer in not only UM History...but also NCAA History. Put Saban, Osborne, etc...under what Butch had to deal with, with NO administration help whatsoever, and virtually NO Booster or NIL help, and...

Back then....the majority thought it was solely JJ. When I met him (with Wifey) in the Keys in 98, he told me Butch never recieved the recognition he deserved for his recruiting exploits from 84-88.

He regrets it. He still Loves UM. He wanted the job back twice....but to no avail. He had an All Star staff ready to come with him both times, but the Administration wouldn't have it. They were still ****ed about his exit. If he stays let's say from 2001-2006....I think we have 2 more NCs. It's...

If Butch had the resources that Mario has had since he's been here (100% complete support from the Administration, and unlimited $$$$ from boosters, and NIL) he'd have built an Empire that would make Alabama's look mundane. Mario was a GA under Butch from 98-2000...There's no excuse with his...

Don't mention Butch's or his staffs names in comparison to this nonsense. Butch knew his weaknesses, that's why he had an Elite staff. Mario is a good recruiter, but nowhere near Butch's recruiting acumen, nor Butch's evaluations and development....Hence, 25 1st rounders in 6yrs, including 2 NFL...
