I don't think what FIRST is asking us to do is to get skilled athletes to improve our chances of winning. I think what FIRST is asking us to do is what you said second - the people already on the team (who may or may not be classified as "geeks", "nerds", or the like) need to get out to the gym and improve their motor skills. Being technologically capable is great, but so is having the ability to not get creamed in a game of H.O.R.S.E.
