well sure, but id prefer not to get into a dukkev type argument where both parties just shout biased opinions not based on actual numbers.
as it stands now, there is more talent to chose from in the south and also less BCS schools fighting for those players in the region.
id argue that the Mid-Atlantic is the most challenging area to recruit due to not only the quantitative data above but also the SEC and BigTen presence in the area (these Mid-Atlantic prospects are being dispersed nationally instead of staying locally); there is a reason why no single program has been able to lock down the elite prospects in the area (more programs are hiding in the backyard)

Yes and no. The competition at the top is as fierce as anywhere, because the national programs are going after the best players wherever they are.
I think what makes it tougher for the MA/NE schools is the lack of depth of prospects. And that adds recruiting competition all over the spectrum of talent in the South, Cali, and Texas.

That's exactly what my thread was about though. Which school had the best chance of being that ONE program that can lock down teh elite prospects in the mid atlantic.
And then you came in and said "FLA,TX, adn CA have more talent than the NE/Mid atlantic."
