Dan Hawkins did a remarkable job at Boise prior to Peterson taking over the job.  Stanford has never been a school to rake in five and four star kids year in and year out due to their academic standards.  How dis they recruit under Harris?  Don't give me the academics angle either, because it doesn't work for Duke or Vandy.

TCU is located in a talent rich state, but that doesn't automatically equate to success.  If that were the case, San Jose St and UCF would be perennial powers.

I meant by my post, and perhaps should have clarified, is that there is no excuse why Syracuse University cannot field a competitive football program.  NYS is clearly greater than Idaho in terms of football talent.  Other schools with relatively stricter academic standards like Stanford, Northwestern, Wake, etc have experienced success this decade.  Small private non BCS schools like TCU have done well.

There are no more excuses.  BTW, didn't see you touting Rubio's performance last game.  How did he do?
