Whatever he is telling them is working. He continues to recruit and sign kids from the south. I counted three just from North Carolina while looking at the 2019 roster. Not to mention Georgia and also South Carolina.
That the same logic doesn't apply to them. Zero sum game, recruiting. Come here, don't go elsewhere. Period.
Two things.
Well, he'll tell em to stay home, if they want. If they want to be THE reason Cuse does well, come up and prove it, while making a name for yourself. If you want to be just another fish in the pond? Wish him well, and move on to find the kid that believes enough in himself to come up to Cuse.
Since the mason dixon line didn't extend that far west and absolutely no southerner would consider it the south, if pressed to include it in the either the north or south, yes I would. If asked to be as accurate as possible, I would say it's the west, but that doesn't fit what was being discussed.You'd put the University of SOUTHERN California in the north?
This is actually a delicate subject and he still hit it out of the park. The key to it (paraphrasing his reference to southern schools) was: "Those schools don't win NC's. The players in the jerseys right here do". Man has a point.
Be specific here; like we talking his likeness, his name, the game date. I need to know your level of commitment.
Mason-Dixon Line is the southern border of PA. In theory it could extend all the way to the Pacific. USC embodies a southern football culture. In general, I would say that California has more Northern ideals.
So this whole segment on what Dino said and he doesn’t mention Syracuse. He spent more time on Ohio, Rutgers, and Penn State. I also think he missed some of the nuance.
If, ya know, they had googled the actual footage...
.
Say "We'll go to Syracuse. We'll win a National Championship." You're doggone right we will.

If you look at maps of what was considered the line west of pennsyvania during the civil war (the actual line was established over a hundred years before it and only went as far as the western end of pennsylvania) it didn't follow a straight line and stopped at the mississippi river.
Have you researched the weather on the west coast? The average high temperature for Stanford, California in January is warmer than Birmingham, Alabama. Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington are nearly identical to Knoxville, Tennesee. All of those areas have a reputation for people doing outdoor activities year round. So based on your point as you define it, the whole west coast is southern.
It's OK man, Cuomo is telling the media that peopl are moving out of NY because of the weather. It couldn't be that NY is the most over-taxed, non business-friendly state in the country.
I kinda agree with your assertion. I think the civil war assumed extension of the line was war based post rationalization. I think culture is the more interesting view. As a coastal state, Cali politics and global views are more in line with coastal cities in the NE. As a football culture, I would say that Southern California teams have more offense minded balanced passing/running games that more closely aligns with SEC culture. The BigTen is more the traditional ground and pound, cloud of dust, “meathead” ball we love to tease. Stanford is an example of this in Northern California. Nothing is black and white, there are more outliers in part due to more media coverage. That said, we can represent a southern on field persona in the north and our success can turn it upside down. I hope we do.
