Our state is a cherry tree ripe for the taking by other schools

There is zero documented proof that besides the Izuchukwu kid, there are any others in the top 30 in our state who are natives of other states or have parents from other states. Don't give me that anyway, because you won't find bigger melting pots than Florida, Georgia, and Texas population-wise. Their schools are managing to keep their talent home. Don't give me the "woe is us. We were 0-8" crap. Look at Ole Miss' record last year. They're even on serious sanctions from probation and currently have the # 1 ranked class according to TOS.

The bottom line is we were looking forward to the classes of 2019 and 2020 in our state as being a major aid in helping us get back. We have a head coach and coaching staff now that appears to know how to develop talent and what does the talent in our own state do? They get plucked from the tree by Alabama, Florida State, Ole Miss, Arkansas, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Georgia, Clemson, LSU, South Carolina, etc.
