| How awesome is it...
that the state of Tennessee has so many quality prospects this year?
I know it still doesn't compare to GA, TX, FL...and it never will...but in a year that is so vital to how fast we can rebuild I think it's huge to have so many high quality guys in the state...
I can see us signing 10-12 guys from TN if the cards fall the right way....
How many do you all see us signing from TN?

| For every one 4 star player that we have in Tennessee the state of Florida probably has 3 | |

| I'm all for getting as much in-state talent as possible. This is looking to be an above average year in TN so I hope we clean up. However, I would say on average over a 5 year period, that for every one TN 4*, there are 5 or more in FL. | |

| Last year, TN had 6 4star or better players (Smith, Maclin, Stone, Brunetti, Malone, and Brown). FL had 50 4star or better players last year, more than 8X the amount TN had.
I could see us offering up to 8 or 9 in-state players this year. Landing 6 of them would be awesome.
