by Bryan KellyOne glance at a map showing the location of every top 100 recruit from 2009 will tell you where the top talent is in the country.
But while the location of great recruits is easy to discern, how easy is it to actually get those recruits away from their home state?
After all, some talent-rich states are dominated by one or two successful programs, which means the players are pointless to and useless to approach.
I'm more interested in the states that have a deep talent pool, and not enough great programs to keep them all local.
I've ranked the top 15 states I think are the best places to locate and land college football recruits, based on the talent available and the success schools have had in luring prospects away.
See what you think.
