'd argue his resume is stronger because he didn't have near the talent Spurrier had at UF.


I have no comment on the OP, but I think this is a shitty way to evaluate a guys career versus someone else.

Recruiting talent is part of the job description

Yes, but he said "coaching", and what you get out of that talent is more important. Snyder got more out of the walk-on crowd and 2-star types that were passed over by the bigger schools.

Snyder has a system in place that works for him. He doesn't have to waste valuable time trying to land a 4 or 5-star player when the kid has the bigger schools in more desirable regions going after him. That advantage went to Spurrier. Not his fault, and it's not that it was any easier because of it, it's just what it is.

I wasn't trying to be "shitty" about it at all.

Yes, but you have to take geography (proximity of talent) and resources into account.

Spurrier has coached in much more talent-rich areas, and been in more advantageous positions than Snyder at KSU.
