Competition is all relative. Put Tressel in the SEC with SEC athletes and I think he would have been as dominant as Saban has been. I think he had the best athletes in the BIG 10 and obviously dominated with them. Only one coach in the SEC is doing the same these days.

Bama is likely to extend the SEC streak to 7 straight. I don't think there is a grey area anymore when discussing dominant conferences and level of competition.

More than half the teams in the SEC recruit at an elite level.

Before Urban Meyer had a mental break down and left UF, the SEC had 6 NC head coaches. Most of them are still in the conference.

Though never officially "caught", The Sweater had a lot of smoke around him at Youngstown, involving players getting cars & other benefits. Several former coaches of his & coached against him do not have a lot of good things to say bout him as a person. The whole time he was lying & covering up the scandal at O.St. he kept a Bible prominently displayed in his office & would often give "lectures" on the Bible. And if you think the tattto scandal was all there was to it, go back & read Maurice Clarette's comments bout being paid more at O.St. than he was in pro ball. His rep is out there & most college insiders know bout it by now. To compare him to Nicky is ludicrous; as much as I don't like the man, there are no college coaches now doing what he's doing at bama. And this is the TIGER rant, fwiw.
