Right now, 22 of 104 guys listed are from the 757, so 21.5%.
It doesn't seem to me that almost a quarter of the team would be local if the coaches didn't recruit local schools.
Of the 21.5% how many were walk ons?

"Son, we don't EVER speak to potential walk-ons here. They just show up on our campus, paperwork in hand..."

The recruit that started this discussion was a walk-on. Who cares how they got here? All that matters is they did and they contribute.
