I just can't figure it out. I must be stupid.

I agree with your point and appreciate the sarcasm.
However, on a serious note, RC makes a valid point. The difference between TCU/SMU and FUCLA is that FUCLA is usually Top 15-20 in recruiting classes every year. For the 2007 season, they were AP #6 or #7, one spot above SC's recruiting class. So FUCLA is getting talent coming in. They just arent developing the talent. SMU/TCU rarely if ever has a highly rated recruiting class despite being in a hotbed. They seem to lack recruiting and coaching skills.
