That's a nice story, but culture doesn't block. You can't develop your way out of a talent deficit in the SEC. While you're waiting on three-star projects to mature, the elite teams are reloading instantly with proven portal stars. That "connection" you feel won't mean much when you're looking up at Georgia and Alabama in the stadnings again. Real family atmospheres are built by winning big games, and for that you need immediate impact players, not just good vibes.
