We were definitely in a similar spot whereby the sport was quickly leaving us behind. We didn't bottom out to the tune of 2-10 like they did, though, so you're right about that. That's really special at a school like FSU. We had some real jerkoffs coaching here, but even some talent would fall in their lap. What saved us was money. Richt was essential getting this process started, then we did stupid UM stuff with Manny, and now with Mario we can see has very competitive resources. We got a guy in place with which people with serious dollars were willing to invest. FSU can circle jerk all they want over their wish list of coaches, but if you don't put competitive dollars behind the guy, you can't consistently win.
