"So What"

Because we're within 50-150 miles of some of the best players nationally. That why out of state colleges recruit here.

Everyone recruits everywhere... They recruit in MI; we recruit in their states.

Michigan is no where as good a recruiting area as you seem to think. I don't have MI in my top 10 states.

Last time I checked, I believe only TWO players who played their senior years in a MI h.s. this past season signed with a P5 program. Those two would be Winston to MSU and Davis to UofM.

Not at all impressive compared to other states or areas (e.g., NYC, or D.C./and its suburbs, L.A. or even a state like N. Carolina).

Look at N. Carolina: http://www.scout.com/high-school/north-c...viation=NC

I count 10 P5 signees + other high ranked prospects not listed as having signed yet.

EDIT: How about Virginia:

Again over a dozen high major signees: Duke, Louisville, KY, Duke, Miss. State, Ohio State, etc. etc.

And why we're panning local players for signing with Niagara or borderline Div I in the case of Oakland, our only signee had exactly how many other Div I offers?

So? Get back with me in 3 months and see if we did better (or worse) than those two signees...
