My sense is that Missouri is just now catching up to the southern states in this regard. Is that true in your experience?

I thought Arkansas football was behind compared to other southern states and then I moved to SW MO. The football scene here is way behind the times. Kids seem to rather play soccer and basketball than football. A town the size of Springfield should be putting out D1 prospects in football but yet they are few and far between.
