I think it's more of a city thing than a state thing actually. in cities where football is promoted at a young age, football normally thrives when those kids are in high school.
in la, there are a bunch of "baseball" towns and some "football" towns for youth. it's pretty obvious to see what towns push which sport at a young age when looking at the state championship results in both sports.

Changes over the years I've been part of
3-4 graders full contact; some 2nd graders with permission from commission with request by parents.
Huge push for implementation of the "Heads-Up" initiative, classes, certification
Much more emphasis on certifications for coaches
More Awareness of heat index, proper hydration
No kick-off, kick-off return, or punt until 5-6th grade.
Much better equipment now than ever
