Message: [QUOTE="Subob1, post: 1631056, member: 464"] one of the barriers to SU coaches investing time with NY high schools is, like it or not NY is talent thin. SU just offered 5 players in one class in one Florida High School. NYS's lack of emphasis on football and the unique issues of NYC means that a given NY high school may have a player maybe a couple of players. That player maybe as good as anybody in the country. A player that has also been identified by the glamour schools. A Utica kid that goes to OSU. How many other big time prospects have come from that school? Is it worth the time to court that coach for the occasional solid potential SU prospect or court coaches of schools that have a half a dozen or more D1 prospects every year, one or two who might be real solid SU prospects every year? I think SU has to invest a priority of time in talent rich areas that place a greater emphasis on Friday night lights. [/QUOTE]
