Atlanta, Miami and the Carolinas?

I know there are a ton of talented players in those areas and I know we do recruit Memphis, St Louis and KC but the distance seems like we should change our focus.

Fayetteville to:
Miami........... 20 hrs
Atlanta......... 10 hrs
Charlotte...... 14 hrs

St Louis.......... 5 1/2 hrs
Memphis......... 5 hrs
Kansas City..... 3 1/2 hrs

Also our other natural cities
Houston.......... 9 hrs
New Orleans....9 1/2 hrs
Dallas...............5 1/2 hrs
Tulsa.................2 hrs

Garrick McGee did well in Tulsa and we expect great things in Texas with the Morris staff but I never understood why we did not try and find a Coach Traylor (East Texas) type coach in Memphis, St Louis and KC. Maybe the places I mentioned are more like Little Rock and just do not have the numbers to make it worth while????? At least in Texas we know football is king in schools.

Going to be interesting to see what happens to the Texas numbers under Morris since you can see that you will sign from where you focus
