That map sure paints a picture why the SEC dominates college football, that’s for sure. Most of the elite talent comes from the Southeast US

Southeast US


The irony is: During Tennessee’s heyday from 96-02 they were heavily reliant on national recruiting.

I think one season they had players from 17 different states.

They looked beyond the Southeast US and it worked really well.

That's because on that map, Tennessee is almost all yellow. They need to go outside their state more relative to other southeast schools

with more than double the population, that’s why they do it per capita

How freaking cares? And I have no idea why "per capita" numbers are so vitally important to Louisiana posters.

I'm sure the per capita numbers will change with population and demographics changes but in the scheme of things it's a meaningless statistic and my OP was a response thread to the idiotic post and completely inaccurate nfl "per capita" map.

The frick? It means we’re supplying LSU with enough talent to be the second best program since 2000 along with dudes for the rest of the SEC… if you think it’s meaningless recruit Kansas instead

How bout California? I mean,don't they really suck in meaningless"per capita" numbers? Yet, somehow they produced a Heisman trophy winner for Bama in '21 and arguably UGA's best player (Bowers) the last 3 years.

Hell,in "per capita" numbers the state of Iowa is top 5 powerhouse but I'd rather not waste my time chasing down talent through all those corn fields

Louisiana is a top 10 state for talent.Why does it matter if it's "per capita" or not?

You don’t understand why using the per capita metric is important? Lol

Holy shite. I’ve seen some ignorant posters on this board but this thread has awarded you with #1.

That’s a ranking you shouldn’t be proud of

You're getting beat by the Hawaiians and the Eskimos

What NFL players have you produced? Some people from Georgia went to the NFL, you had zero to do with it. Same for me here in Louisiana. Does it make you feel more of a man that you are from the same geographic area as elite athletes. Do you feel shame that you weren’t one of them? Do you have trouble maintaining an erection?

I'm not the one calling my school NFL U . Georgia posters aren't on here CONTINUALLY talking about "per capita" bullshite (My OP was nothing more than sarcasm/response thread) This seems to be an obsession with on particular fan base on here and it ain't UGA fans.

You seem very angry. You need to relax and get back on your meds.
