BADSANTA Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Big debate in office today. My boss who is from Orlando thinks Florida has better high school talent than Texas. When we looked at the top 10 schools in college football, Texas born players out number FL 4-1. Your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMTSoulja1 Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 You know the obvious answer here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dayton Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 texas outnumbered florida 25 million to just under 19 million in total population in 2010. So that has to figure in, but overall, I think the nod has to go to texas. Florida seems to be a hot bed for great skill kids though. Texas catches/passes them up in the big nasty dept.

magic Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Texas had the highest number of players who received Division I scholarships in the 2011. I believe it was in the low 300's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also tons of players who become good in college from texas played a different position in highschool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougtalk Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 If i want a good defensive kid i go to texas, a fast back or wide out? i go to Flordia, a good west coast style thrower i go to cali, offensive linemen as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robanadana Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 C'mon guys, this is easy, just look at all the Texas Universities:1. The University of Texas @ Norman, OK.2. The University of Texas @ Stillwater, OK.3. The University of Texas @ Lawrence, KS.4. The University of Texas @ Manhattan, KS.5. The University of Texas @ Lincoln, NE.6. The University of Texas @ Fayetteville, AR.7. Most of the universities in Louisiana including McNeese and LSU, who recruits heavily in our area.8. Without the city of Dallas, Oklahoma would be a Div.

Ty Cobb Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Just listen to college coaches when they talk about recruiting. They will all say that you better recruit the state of TEXAS. Everyone in the SEC is excited about Texas A&M joining the conference because it gives them a better chance at recruiting TEXAS athletes. If you want to win and I mean win big, you better recruit TEXAS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
