FWIW: 2006 Recruiting Top 5 States
Texas = 375 HS + 20 JC + 1 Prep = 396 D1 recruits
Florida = 334 HS + 27 JC + 6 Preps = 367 D1 recruits
Cali = 237 HS + 100 JC = 337 D1 recruits
(Cali known for JC system)
then Ga = 138 + 10 + 2 = 150 D1 recruits
& Ohio = 131 D1 recruits
FYI: Texas is currently 3rd behind Cali & Florida in NFL guys this year. 1st time in recent memory. We still lead in D1 college recruits obviously.
from David Barron, Houston Chronicle:
Longtime readers of Texas Football magazine know that I annually compile a state by state list of high school seniors that sign Division I-A scholarship letters of intent. Texas has led that list each year that I've compiled it, but that doesn't carry over to the NFL. The league reported this week that California turned out the most players on NFL opening-day rosters with 206, followed by Florida with 177 and Texas with 175.
Two high schools from Florida, two from California and one from Hawaii lead with five players each. Twenty schools have four alumni each, including Angleton, Dallas Carter, DeSoto, Lufkin and Midland Lee.
