[quote="wfschrec, post: 8407" they just yank guys like Percy Harvin out of these programs and turn them loose.[/quote]
I am 99 percent certain they pulled Harvin out of the Tidewater Region of Virginia. I am also pretty sure the Florida has been pulling studs out of NY/NJ/PA and CT over the last few years.
Overall though, I absolutely get your point. Those Florida schools are extremely advanced compared to their Northern brethren. That being said, Bauta certainly did not look out of place, and he is from NJ and played ball at a NYC high school until this Spring.
