Conference States with the Most Recruits:

Many conferences share the same states such as the SEC and ACC.

 

 

1) SEC = 917 – Not counting Texas, counting Texas = 1,294

2) ACC = 797 – Not Counting teams that will be picked up in the future.

3) Big 10 = 496

4) Pac 10 = 449

5) Big 12 = 444

6) Big East = To confusing to be determined, somewhere around 657 unless Ohio no longer represented. However, the will eventually pick up Texas and Tennessee as well as California. They will lose Ohio, Ney York and Pennsylvania

That is true. The Big 12 is basically a one state confernce and Texas provides almost all the signees. The Pac 10 is driven mostly by California whch provides 65% of it's signees. The other conferences do cover more states and is a little more diverse. However, Ohio provides a larges share as goes Florid and Ga in the SEC.

 

The big 10 may have a couple more less states than the SEC but they have more population and the states on the Pac 10 has roughly the same population. The ACC has a larger population as well.

 

The per capita stats are a little more telling in the balance of things!

One can conclude whatever they wish. It was only stats. However, you can see that just because a state produces more resruits does not mean they actually produce more percentage wise. Texas produces more but percentage wise they are only 7th. California produces the 3rd most but they are not even in the top 15 percentage wise.

 

So who produces the most when taking all things in consideration, I say it would be either a tie between Georgia and Florida with Louisiana very close then Alabama.

How about what state sends more in the draft the last 10 yrs.

 

I don't know about the last 10 years, but here are how the states ranked at the end of 2010 by how many players they had in the NFL....

 

1) California - 251

2) Texas - 211

3) Florida - 184

4) Ohio - Only other state over 100 (but don't have a specific number)

 

As RedCreek said, One can conclude whatever they want. And what I conclude from this is, if you want to fill your roster with the best top notch talent, it's not Louisiana or Alabama you're going to look for it. It's the 4 states above....primarily California and Texas!

Approximate populaulations:

 

Population of California = 37,691,000

Population of Texas = 25,675,000

 

Texas beats California but Florida beats Texas.

 

If you look at college, some state are self sustaining, some states are close to sustaining while others states must depend on players from outside their states and a lot of those players come from states with excess listed above.

 

In the case of Mississippi, they produced 52 signees so far this year in D1. They have 3 D1 programs and if all their signees stayed in state that would give them that gives them enough to field 2.364 complete teams per year or 2 full teams with 4 extra players each for depth. Therefore, regardless if it's 2.364 teams or 2 teams, they will still have to depend on some out of state players.

 

In the case of Texas, there are around 10 DI schools. The number of signees is they stayed in state, would give the Texas schools a total of 37 players or 10 complete teams plus 15.7 players left over for each team to provide depth. That is a very good position to be in. However, no one sign 37 freshmen any more so that means there is an excess amount of players available for other states. The rest of the Big 12 states do not produce enough players to fill a complete team if you break them down by the number of D1 schools in their state. Therefore they cannot sustain themselves without the help of Texas and a few more states.

 

If you look at Georgia, they have they have enough to field MANY TEAMS!!!!! The have two D1 schools and had 188 signees. That give them enough to field 8 tteams with close to 12 left over per team for reserves.

 

Florida has 7 D1 scolls and 340 D1 signees, that would give them 22 platers each with 26 more players per school for reserves, that would be deep too.

 

Ohio is interesting as well. They had 171 signees and 8 DI schools. That would mean they do not have quite emough to filed all 8 teams. They would only have enough to have 21.375 players per team or 1 positon short per school. I would assume that thet would be close enough and Ohio state would not have to worry.

 

 

California isa Bear too, no pun intended! They only have 6 D1 FBS schools playing football. That would give them 6 full teams with 48 players left over for reserves for each school.

 

On the other end you have Kansas with 2 D1 schools and 15 signees. Neither could field even one side of the ball unless one school gets them all. West Virginina would be in worse shape, they have two D1 schools and only 4 signees. They could only fill the kicking positions for each team with their in state talent.

 

Some states are under represented in schools when compared to their populations. That is why there are an excess of players in those states and why so many of them have to go out of state.

These results are clearly due to the rampant oversigning by SEC schools. (Joking.)
