I think the same could be happening to FSU.

UW is beating them for some recruits. When did you ever think that would happen?
FSU will be able to comeback imo. It will take the right coach. That is true of any program though. It takes the right coach.

It's nice to have the right coach when he's 48 years old.

back in the late 80's early 90's Miami, Florida St., and Florida got the florida high school talent they could hold on the roster

a few went to the the SEC, but the message from ESPN back then was that those 3 teams were going to rule College football indefinitely

Texas, California, Ohio high school talent couldn't compete

No one's ever done that, lol.  All the FL talent would fill 5 big-boy teams.

Why didn't Florida just hire Mullen after Urban left? Did they even try?

Well.....11 NC in 31 years (83-13) from one state is pretty sick. 
Those other 3 states managed only 4 in the same time frame...combined.

We're back to the "rarely a legend follows a legend" thing (not that DM is a legend).  We saw it when Spurrier left - no one wanted to follow his career.

An all-star team from the rest of the state would beat a Miami/Broward all-star team.....but they'd both beat anyone else.

But it's a badass quote.

How many times just in the 4 team playoff?
what changed?

It's amazing that he never had to leave to recruit using anything but a car.

That quote was right after Miami smashed UNL in Pasadena for the MNC.

Look at all of the elite, high draft pick players during OSU's incredible run under Meyer. Most of them aren't from Ohio....

Ryan Shazier - Florida
Bradley Robey - Georgia
Michael Thomas - California
Curtis Samuel - New York
Malik Hooker - Pennsylvania
Vonn Bell - Georgia
Zeke Elliot - Missouri
Raekwon McMillan - Georgia
Joey Bosa - FL
Nick Bosa - FL
Jeffrey Okudah - Texas
Damon Arnette - Florida
JK Dobbins - Texas
Dwayne Haskins - Maryland
Chase Young - Maryland

Soon to be high draft picks:
Shaun Wade - Florida
Justin Fields - Georgia
Chris Olave - California
Wyatt Davis - California
Garrett Wilson - Texas

This is why Ohio State has been ELITE under Meyer- not because of the talent in Ohio- and now under his protege Day- who was handed the keys to a fricken' Ferrari.

Meyer might be the best recruiter there ever was.

Disagree.

A South Florida (Palm Beach/Broward/Dade) All-Star team would smoke a rest of FL team. Those 3 counties have nearly half the state's population and probably more than half of the state's elite football talent.

This of course isn't counting the IMG bullshit school in Tampa area- which recruits 5* and 4* kids from every state in the entire country.

A lot of those players weren't even from South Florida.

Ed Reed, Reggie Wayne, Jeremy Shockey, Kellen Winslow Jr., Ken Dorsey, DJ Williams- not even from Florida.
Clinton Portis- was from Northern Florida.
