You're talking about building programs, but you forget Holtz and Spurrier were always poaching junior college talent to patch holes. That was their version of the portal. What Gundy is doing at Oklahoma State is just modern roster management, and if it wins games, that's coaching too. I watched our Big Blue teams in the late 80s adapt and bring in transfers to compete, and it was just as strategic. The legends you mention would use every tool available to win today. This nostalgic idea of pure four-year development ignores how the game has always been about finding players who can help you now. The real difference is the money, not the intent.
