So when he looks at the guy and he's screaming at him on the practice field, they know this.
Not only does he know how to win in the SEC, he knows how to win the national championship.
So when Bill is screaming at these guys, who are clearly not as talented, because his roster is not Miami.
It is not Ohio State.
It is not Oregon.
He doesn't have that level of talent.
In college football, unlike the pros where the margin of error isn't that big, the majority of the games are one score going into the fourth quarter.
a lot of the time, are defined by the coaches.
The players got to make plays, but it's the play calls.
It's the X's and the O's.
Where in college, we typically break down the X's and the O's more in the playoffs.
When it's Miami versus Indiana.
When it's Indiana against Ohio State.
When it's Oregon against Texas Tech.
Then the play calls matter.
But when Oregon is playing Rutgers, or Ohio State is playing Maryland, or Bama is playing Mississippi State, it typically doesn't matter as much.
Why?
Because the Jimmys and the Joes are so much better, the play calls don't mean shit.
So Bill's great advantage is his mind, is his schematics.
But if he doesn't have the players, it doesn't matter.
