Barry Switzer always used to respond to those who called OU lucky, "we recruit our luck".

     The name of the game is recruiting.  Get better players than your competition.  That is the way Tom Osborne did it throughout his career.  I never did think TO was a great, adequate but not great, game day coach but he typically had more, sometimes much more, talent than did his opposition.  It all goes back to recruiting.
