People are making the argument that it costs too much for kids to come to Syracuse and New York doesn't produce enough talent to make it a worthwhile event.

Well here's a graph distribution of Div. I recruits by state done by [URL='http://www.footballstudyhall.com']www.footballstudyhall.com[/URL] followed up by some research from myself.

Now look at all the states that produced the same or less talent than New York. How many of those states have major football programs, and how many have junior days.

Don't worry, I've compiled the school and junior day dates for you below.

Nebraska Junior Day     January 22, 2014
Wisconsin Junior Day  February 15, 2014
Kentucky Junior Day  February 15, 2014
Louisville Junior Day  February 15, 2014
Boston College Junior Day  February 15, 2014
Minnesota Junior Day  February 16, 2014
Connecticut Junior Day  early April 2014
Iowa Junior Day  March 1, 2014
Iowa State Junior Day  March 8, 2014
West Virginia Junior Day  February 22, 2014
Arkansas Junior Day  March 1, 2014
Kansas Junior Day  February 22, 2014
Kansas State Junior Day  March 1, 2014

Really we are the only one of our peer schools from a state that produce the same or less talent that doesn't have a junior day- if we do have one I can find no record of it on the interwebz anywhere.

Come up with all the excuses you want, but why are we doing things different than EVERY other school in our peer group? Even  is having a junior day (no date given other than early April).
