[QUOTE="BashCtIllini, post: 2008038, member: 748491"] It is not an even playing field in college sports anymore. There was always inequity due to reputation, facilities, ability to get away with cheating, but ultimately everyone had the same opportunity, especially when you look from a coaching perspective. If you were a great coach, you could succeed at any school and put yourself in position to move onward and upward. Now with some schools having far more money than others, and the ability to freely transfer, certain schools are not able to compete. Any time they have a great year, they'll just lose their players to bigger richer schools. Kids won't stay to develop, they just leave for more PT or more money right now. Unless you're at the top of the pyramid, college coaching is probably extremely frustrating. [/QUOTE]
