When SOS was the HBC, he seldom went North of the border (Jacksonville) & complained bitterly about being unable to recruit South Florida & West Florida.

Granted, at that time you had strong FSU & Miami teams & coaches - Bowden, Dennis Erickson, & Butch Davis.

Today I read a article, from another site, about Jacurri Brown, a QB prospect from Valdosta, GA.

It made me think (difficult to do in my dotage) about how many players, recruits, & prospects we now have from those foreign countries North of our border, South of Palm Beach, & from Tallahassee & points west.

Georgia
9 currently on our roster
2 currently committed
3 (at least) current targets

South Florida
15 currently on our roster
5 currently committed
??? current targets

West Florida-Pensacola, Alabama. & Texas
5 currently on our roster
2 committed
??? current targets

Australia
1 currently on our roster

Since the days of SOS, someone has made an enormous change in our recruiting landscape. Obviously, its not Dan Mullen, because as everyone knows, he can't recruit.
