re: LSU considered premier coaching job

USC and Texas are the best two jobs in America, loaded states with lil' or no competition for the best ballers. Their ab$olutely loaded financially, have top-tier academia, and both are in highly desired sophisticated cities, with plenty of the amenities that draw collegians. That either schools trail UF and LSU in BCS crowns this past decade is sorta an indictment upon Carroll and Brown, despite their consistent 10 and 11 win regular seasons..especially when coming out of one-or-two-horse conferences.

Of SEC schools Fla is next in line, based upon the aforementioned two schools & Fla's premier state school status, as they are amongst the nation's three most populous and talent-loaded states, and all three's warm-weathered status allure. One strong factor also at hand for Fla of current is that Miami and FSU have dropped off, thus creating a dominant UF of current, able to grab players from right under the two ACCers in former Nole and Cane strongholds, also aided by the SEC's dominant best national conference allure of current.

Then comes Ohio State, whom's main edge over LSU, UGA, Bama, OU, Mich, ND, etc..is it's obscene economic engine and large national recruiting prowess, which imho rates over it's much-heralded yet slightly overrated Ohio high school footballer output, of which is usually listed as one of it's top one or two strengths. Also OSU is only challenged by Michigan for longterm Big-10 supremacy, as Penn State has been smacked around by both OSU and Mich since their arrival. Wisky, Iowa, MSU,etc..never a serious longterm threat to OSU.
