[B]NFL teams get good because of good coaching (same as CFB) and good roster management/cap management. The rules in the NFL are the most stringent around player acquisition and the cap.  [/B][I]So you are saying support staff doesn't help much?[/I]

[B]CFB teams get good because of good coaching and recruiting. There's a reason for all the rules governing recruiting.  The amount of support staff you have doesn't help you with the cap. But the amount of support staff could influence recruiting.   [/B][I]How can this be when there are only the actual staff of coaches which is capped and some support staff that are allowed contact to recruits?   There are rules in place so that nobody has a clear advantage in recruiting as you mentioned.  How is having more support staff going to affect recruiting with such rules in place and please explain which ones are being circumvented by adding additional staff?[/I]

[B]And the NFL is the biggest sport in this country with or without your viewership - they are doing something right. Players don't move around as much as you think anyways.  [/B][I]Actually they move around quite a bit more than they did in the past.  As far as the NFL being the biggest sport in the country without my viewership, that is fine.  I would bet that I am not the only one that feels this way and if their attitude mirrors yours, it wont be for long.  Especially with the concussion press they are getting and what it has meant to youth football leagues and parents.  Baseball, Horse Racing and Boxing all used to be King of the hill and are no longer.  It can happen to any business or sport.[/I]
