And you just proved why it's more coaches to players. It's that aspect of development, and coaching. That quote about Bear Bryant hold true. I have no doubt that a good coach could do more with a bad team than a bad coach with good players.
When someone brought up Cutcliff or Peaterson. You went to "it was because he had talented players" but those coaches molded that talent and taught them how to play. In the game of football it's more coaching than actually players. Baseball, basketball, and hockey OK I'll probably say it's more players than coaches
