[QUOTE="FredJacket, post: 389622, member: 2843"] Just a quick scan of the 2018 rosters of Ga Tech, UVA, Clemson & UNC: Ga Tech - Overwhelming majority of players from Georgia. We've discussed the reasons for this before....but seems to be an obvious decision by the staff to almost exclusively recruit in-state. It seems obvious to me when compared to these other 3 ACC teams.. Ga Tech's geographic focus is smaller than the others...perhaps that is ok and our 'below expectations' results can be attributed to other factors. UVA - Most players are from Virginia; however, there is significant representation from outside the state...a few from FL but mostly northeast (PA, Mich, NY, MD) Obvious... that staff sees the need to expand the recruiting footprint. I have lots of questions regarding how "hard" that is (financially and practically). For the record, UVA has no players from the state of Georgia. Clemson - Most players from SC; however, many from NC and Georgia (11 total, unfortunately). UNC - Similar to UVA. Most from NC...but representation from other places. UNC has 1 Georgia player. I think it is a fair criticism that Ga Tech is geographically located in an advantageous recruiting position...yet, lately... the results do not line up. [/QUOTE]
