DAILY DEBATE: Which state/region should Miami recruit harder?

I see a lot of people saying DMV. Excellent concentration of talent, highly competitive recruiting area.

I'd advise to cherry pick but not over-prioritise. Miami is far down the list.

Since it hasn’t been mentioned yet.

Utah. A lot of migration there, in particular a lot of Poly/Samoa families. The state’s population is projected to double (3.4m to 7m) by 2050.

And probably just as important the Mormon church supports youth and college sports.

It wont be mentioned...NO....Would be an extreme waste of funds.

That what u posted likely bodes well for BYU and the Utes.

We probably go after 1 kid every 3 classes with an under 15percent chance of landing them

Will sound like a joking, but I'm not.

International students have different qualification rules (as I understand).

Why not have a combine event in Ulan Bataar, Mongolia and throughout African continent in major areas?

Hundreds, if not thousands, of athletes would show up over time. I suspect Miami would find multiple future NFL Hall of Fame gems in that effort.

Wanna get serious, then let's get serious.

I'd bet after a few years several other major programs are copying Maimi's international recruiting structure.

I see a lot of Texas and the “why” behind is obvious. I just think we’re fighting too much of an uphill battle there. Too many teams are dumping money for those boys to stay home. UT is back, OU will always be there, SMU is going to be national again and they spend, TTU are going to rise and maybe start to run the Big 12, too many moving parts.

It doesn't stop other schools from coming into Florida. Miami, UF, and FSU are all big time football programs.

That’s only 3 programs. You have about 8 in Texas that are legitimate programs. UT, OU, Baylor, TCU, TTU, A&M, SMU, and Houston all battle each other and can pay with anybody. Can’t say the same with Florida.

You have a point. I don't really consider SMU, Houston, TTU, or even TCU on UT or A&M level. If Miami gets good again, I think we could pull some kids out of TX. Can’t do it if we don't try
 
As a North Carolinian I'd love us to recruit here more. We have some pretty good talent and there's a lot of Canes fans here.

The North (Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania) for high IQ linemen and linebackers.

I'm seeing alot of success from DBs from Iowa, Utah, Indiana. Wherever they're getting their DBs from.

If im recruiting texas i pretty much would just look to Dallas and small amount of resources in the houston area. But i'd go dallas.

Me personally i would rather use those fnds in Louisiana though ...id go New Orleans and im happy that we are focusing in Louisiana...now we need to push to New ORLEANS AND THE WEST BANK

we got a Lake Charles, Baton Rouge and a New Iberia kid in the last 3 classes.
 
From the 24 Class:

6 of the top 10 in the 25 class are currently committed to non Texas schools. I went back further for the 23 & 22 classes as well in this thread 👇🏽

But the idea that Texas kids aren't or won't leave Texas is a myth. They're doing it every year & have so more increasingly as of late in this NIL era.

It really shouldn't matter where the talent comes from, but not recruiting a region that produces as much talent as Texas does is the same thing as not recruiting Florida if you're a non-FL school, it's dumb.

Playoff & Championship programs recruit everywhere.

Yes, Dallas and Houston. A lot of good football players in those areas. In the age of NIL, some will leave the state. I guess a lot has to do with the coaches on staff and the relationships they have in a given state/area

Miami isnt on al ist because we dont recruit there.

There isnt a list for the dmv those kids would go anywhere....

Penn State, Osu, UNC,USC, FSU, VT AND UVA HAVE BECOME NON FACTORS), Maryland isnt a deterrent.

Yeah. Polynesian families move to Utah specifically to live in Mormon communities. Nobody is moving to Miami if life being in a Mormon community is a big deal for them.

on this list posted above....we recruited /offered a bunch of em and didnt even get to second base or finger popped any of em...so we have that going for us as well.

We could hone in on a guy or two which we seem to offer a few every year but it isnt coming to fruition.

The one outlier i see on the list is vandy. Everyone else is a neighboring state or won a championship recently.

We could reset after becoming a perennial 10 win team.

What Championship has Oregon, Tennessee, USC, UF & Colorado won recently?

And that was just the top 35 from last year, if you actually go through the entire state there were a lot more who committed to other schools outside of Texas. The same with the 22 & 23 class.

Currently right now, for the 25 class the majority of the top 10 kids in Texas will likely not be committed to an in-state school by the time ENSD comes around.

As I've said & been saying for the longest, it's a matter of effort. All we have to do is put the same effort we put into recruiting Alabama, Louisiana, Georgia etc into Texas & it will absolutely bare results.
