This started in the 50"s when the Chancellor reduce the number of available football scholarships when the rest of the SEC had basically unlimited schollie's.
As much as I wish for it, unless there is a global change in college sports, football especially, we will never be more than a mid-level SEC program, with occasional glimpses near the top.
