[QUOTE="oceantide83, post: 133053580, member: 1428354"] No, I didn't change my tune. The facts are still the facts with regards to most recruits either not being born or being too young to remember who those guys were apart from being able to look them up on their phones like just about anything else in today's world. My point is that they're not going move the needle with regards to recruiting and that the money would be better spent on talented coaches who know what they're doing. I don't ever recall a recruit claiming that a past player was a deciding factor in their decision to attend a program. It would be a foolish thing to do anyway as a "legend" can't magically transfer their talent to a new recruit just because they go to the same school. Also, even if any of that would have mattered in the past, it's all about the $$$ in today's world. [/QUOTE]
