Makes sense. Seems to be a lot of front running ry in Broward over the years most likely a result of the major private powerhouse schools. Hopefully we buck the trend this year and keep them home.

WITH OBVIOUS EXCEPTIONS TO BOTH OVER THE YEARS

Seems like Broward has more high end kids over the last 5-7 years (because of the private schools AH and Heritage), more drama (again see the exceptions disclaimer at the top), and more high ranking busts than dade

If I gotta take an underrated kid, I'd take my chances in Dade

And although we've struggled with both under the previous regimes...And the high end, 5* types have been a struggle to land, Broward has been a real thorn in UM's side

Pope didn't make the top 100 because he didn't play in the Under Armour game. ESPN has extreme bias towards players who play in the all-star game they broadcast. Guarantee if he played in that game and was uncoverable like he was in San Antonio he'd be rated way higher.

Got love Dade, PB & Broward, but Dade produces the players with the highest upside.
 
It used to be the U with the most players and that was important to people but the narrative changed to a city thing, its why kids go anywhere now to rep there city. Hope we get back to that and reorder cfb again.

Go by the ones in the nfl that don’t go by bias ranking

NFL or not, I was shocked. I even re-checked the numbers to make sure they had the right counties.

And I’m from the part of the original 305 that’s now 954 ... and I agree that there has to be bias in the rankings. I might be able to see it if there was a slight edge but 50% more? As I said, I’m shocked.
 
Dade is going to have more total players based purely on population numbers. There's a lot more people there.

Broward county has a population of roughly 1.9 million people with Fort Lauderdale being the most populous city at 178,000.

Dade county has a population of 2.7 million people with Miami being the most populous city at 460,000.

If you adjust for population, Fort Lauderdale is actually a better NFL factory. Miami has almost 3 times the amount of residents but only 10 more NFL players.

The original tweet says "home towns".
 
But they are recruiting broward players for the most part. All the miami kids are staying in dade county but transfering all over the place every year.

I try not to get caught up in that stuff. We're only a few minutes apart from each other. It's all "the bottom" to me.
