Without a doubt, but the one major advantage they don’t have is — elite in state talent and a conference footprint loaded with elite talent. They will get the occasional 5 Star (like one every 6 or 7 years) and they will sprinkle in a top 100 recruit here or there, but the state of Michigan isn’t pumping out elite players.And UM has more advantages than about 125 FBS college programs.
CFB is all about who can collect the most talent, period. It is about who the best recruiters are in CFB. Saban could have stayed at MSU for 20 years and he wasn’t going to win a NC. That’s why he jumped at the first chance to get a coaching job in the South.
