Interesting video on the death of college football in the Northeast. I think we’ve debated many of the topics ad nauseam, but also some good points brought up about fractured state school system in NY.
 
Yeah this is a bit of hyperbole. No question that SU/Pitt/BC are at a disadvantage because of ACC money vs SEC/B10 money. But we and the others are still competitive and obviously PSU is more than competitive.

Oh and Rutgers has been dead for years
 
PSu is not in the east any more

What happens if you pull OSU out of the mid west or Clemson from the East coast or ALA/GA from the south.

And without Oregon what has the west done?
 
I think it’s the opposite. One thing the video did not bring up was NIL. Northeast talent volume is definitely lower than other regions in the country, but the volume of FBS programs and P4 programs is also lower. The northeast has plenty of talent to service most of the needs for the P4 programs that exist in this region. Also, what NIL is changing is the ability to keep northeast players home and taken care of instead of going to the factory schools hoping to get there opportunity to play and make enough of an impression to get paid in the NFL. Local talent that can get offers from the factory schools can now get paid at home and increase the likelihood of playing sooner. NIL makes it much more difficult for the factory schools to keep 4 star talent benched for development on its rosters for 3 years to maybe get the opportunity to play big time college football.
