I'm not saying it's not trending to what you say, but from what we've seen (a&m), it's not something anyone can just do. To paraphrase Tony Montana, "First, you gotta have the money, then you get the power".

So, not too many schools can raise that kind of money for a prolong period of time (3-4 years?). Then you need the coaches that can handle the kids and keep them in line. Then you have to bring the whole team together and win. We've seen that Jimbo couldn't do it at atm. How many coaches could? I'm betting less than a handful. Maybe Saban could have done it, but we'll never know now.

Is it possible? Sure. But I think what we saw at a&m would be the norm if others tried to do it.

Many of the coached that aggy has hired in the last 20 years seemed like they were good hired, none have panned out. Elko may succeed,only time will tell, but the odds are stacked against him.

In general it's hard to find and attract a top coach to aggy. Lots of expectations, and college Station isn't everyone's cup of tea, with the culture seeming
odd to many.

I couldn’t agree more about the culture being odd. I was forced to work that area when I was in sales years ago and I didn’t do well because it was strange and I never figured it out because I was raised to always be logical.
 
I don't understand how that Swaim guy has an audience as much as he makes stuff up.
Be careful out there guys. A lot of guys make up crazy stuff with no basis of truth. Swaim does this all the time. Blue Blood Bias does too.
