Outside of DBs or WRs, the State of Florida no longer produces elite talent

I really wish opposing coaches were as stupid as some of the posters on this site are about FL talent. that way it wouldn’t leave the state and all y’all Georgia, Bama, and the Carolinas lip smackers could see just how good the talent in FL still is and will always be.

The state of Florida no longer produces elite talent, except DBs and WR’s and it’s having a major impact on Miami, and the big 3 in the state. Does the State produce elite DBs and WRs? Yes, but not much else.

If you’re looking for other talented players, my view posits that the State of Florida is mediocre at producing talent, which is impacting Miami as much as the bad coaching. Georgia, South Carolina, Texas, California, the Washington DMV area, Ohio and Louisiana have all surpassed the state of Florida when producing other high level talent.

And before anyone questions South Carolina, that state has produced a ridiculous amount of NFL talent the past 10 years and Clemson’s roster is filled with Carolina talent.

Does FL produce elite Olineman? Nope
Dline? Nope
TEs? Nope
QBs? Negative
Linebackers? Ehhh...but, I’ll also say no, here. There are few, if any recent standouts
Kickers? **** nah
RBs? Ehhh. In the last 10 years there have been only 3 elite RBs that have produced at a consistent high level: Dalvin Cook, Davonta Freeman and Duke Johnson. And only 2 are doing anything noteworthy in the NFL: Cook and Freeman.

Where am I going with this? The strategy of “building a fence” around South Florida to recruit, and recruiting the state of a Florida to make up the core of the team, is flawed because the State no longer produces great players outside of DBs and WRs. Time to expand the operation

You’re helping my argument. Clemson and Bama consistently pluck WRs and DBs from Florida. That’s about it.

Alabama took leatherwood but he’s been somewhat of a bust

A bust??!! He’s a true freshman you dork!!! Fla still produces the best rb,lb, dL- esp de,-and lb- a state as populous as Fla doesn’t go from producing Jon Vilma’s and Jon Beasons’s and Ray Lewis’ to your idiot argument in one 15 year span- it’s the awful coaching that is responsible for the perceived drop off in talent- if there even is one!!!
 
Is it coincidence that states where the head coach doesn’t have to be a bus driver or pe teacher and pay high school coaches more are catching up and putting out more developed talent.

If Florida ran it’s high school programs like Texas and Georgia, op wouldn’t even have imagined to make this post.
