I understand the points you are making. It's just that they are not nearly enough to overcome all the disadvantages that remain for a school like WF to compete in football in today's P-5 conferences. What are some of those disadvantages? First & foremost, very few players who are likely to be good enough to help WF in football at the P-5 level are going to want to go to WF in the first place.....as these are the kinds of players who are going to have much more attractive alternative offers from other schools which are much better positioned to further their football careers. Secondly...and assuming that you are not stooping so low as to completely sacrifice academic integrity to build a football program....these potential football players are going to have to do things they might not have to do as much of at those other schools....like go to class. Thirdly, is there any need to even discuss the relative desirability of social life for football players at WF compared to that at these other larger schools?
How long have you been following WF football? I've been watching WF football for 59 of the 65 years they have played in the ACC (my 1st game was a 13-7 win over NC State in 1958). That's a pretty good sample size. You can live in your fantasy world of thinking that WF is now playing on a level field with the likes of Clemson, Florida State, Miami, UNC....hell, even Virginia, Boston College & Syracuse or the rest of the schools in the ACC....if you wish, but I'm here to tell you that it just ain't so. Clawson will probably never have a winning season at WF, but it's not all his fault. I don't think that Grobe could do it again, either....nor any other coach that you can convince to come here and get his ass beat on a regular basis for a couple million dollars per year. And that's really the only reason any coach would take this job.
ETA: And after 65 years of results, it's rather laughable that you are saying that I am the one who is ignoring facts.
Also, if you are going to call me dumb, please use "you're" rather than "your".
