Cristobal and Diaz both went more national in their recruiting.

In some cases there are additional schools tied for the bottom of the top 5 (ex: Miami Central is also at 5% under Cristobal)

In Diaz' case, it's because he struck out locally so often.

Agree. Another thing I notice is that Mario isn’t afraid to go into the Deep South to get players. Only coach listed with Alabama and Louisiana kids coming to Miami

Love it. Best teams were around the 55% mark of Florida kids. Get the best ones and pull studs from everywhere else.

Do IMG kids count toward being from Florida or did you go back to their home state?

To me their OOS but with a geographic convenience advantage for our staff

Agreed and I ask because those guys are influential both at IMG as well as their home state (potentially)

Counts as being from Florida. But that’s an interesting question.

The recruiting sites definitely count them as FL. But only the ones from FL prior to attending IMG should be counted, IMHO. E.g., Ja'Corey Brooks = Florida, David Stone = Oklahoma.
