Exclusively south Florida is not and never has been the answer either. Yeah it’s a lot of good to great players but it won’t get you over the hump. There’s a reason why the bama’s etc of the world has a few but roster is not littered with just players from south Florida
 
Not to detail this thread but It’s going to be real interesting to see how SFL talent does after COVID. Many families moved out due to inflation and insane housing market. I am curious to see how this affects the football community down here moving forward.

Defense would be solid

But the Offense needs a QB, Pratt is a 55-57% passer & has minimal arm talent.

Daniel Richardson at CMU would’ve been a better pick at QB than Pratt.
He had 2,633yds 24TD’s & 6INT’s at 60%cmp.

Plus the RB’s need to be revamped:
I’d replace McIntosh with Johnny Ford or Frank Gore Jr

Nate Noel would probably take Knighton’s spot as well.

Why didn't we offer Gore?

Have most of those families stayed within Dade, Broward and PB or are they moving to other areas of the state (or out of state)?

Doesn't seem like we've had that many folks leaving up here in North Florida

That’s an 11 win team with Richardson as your starting QB. The RB’s have enough versatility and depth that you can control a game Gore Jr, Chaney, Parrish, McIntosh, Thad, etc. Your defense is 2 and 3 deep with starters all around the country (Hyppolite, Frierson, Kendra Smith, Porter Jr., etc.). There’d be some depth on the OL in Marcus Dumervil, Marlon Martinez, Maurice Smith, and Jonathan Denis. The only spot not elite would be QB on the roster.

I know we're focused on the Canes, but as a South Florida homer we always talk about how good we'd be if we kept everyone home. Of course, that's unrealistic. Some kids will string us along (Brandon Innis, Jalen Brown) and some will be late bloomers. Mario and this staff give us the ability to recruit elite national kids and that's a must to compete for national championships.

But just for discussion purposes, how would this team stack up nationally?

Defense would be nice but offense would be middle of the road.

Guys just turned out to develop at various places but there's a reason the LT goes to Vandy and not anywhere else in the SEC. He develops and now is elite starter level for the best team in the country.

Two words.....National Recruiting

Defensively, this is a really good team.

Offensively, there is some question marks.

I'll go 9-3 with the defense doing the heavy lifting

9-3 in what, the NFC east?

“dreaming” isn’t the word I’d use for those coordinators.

8-9 games
 
Top 2 defense in the country. That offense is kinda iffy though, especially at QB, RB and TE. I would put Daniel Barker ahead of Kemore.

I don't think anyone foresaw Abraham Beauplan or AT Perry.
