I agree with most of that, with the exception of recruiting appeal. Our games are on TV no more than almost every other BCS school. And our national profile is middle of the road. To the average 17-18 year old high school senior, we have played 2 memorable games since they started playing football: OSU 06, and App St. Maybe you can count the Rose Bowls as well. That's not exactly going to make a kid hear The Victors in his sleep, unless he grew up in the state.
