Tradition/prestige: The clout the program carries based on its past accomplishments.
Stadium: Quality of the stadium, size of the stadium, crowd, and vibe of game day atmosphere.
In-state talent: The quality of high school recruits that are predisposed to come play for the football program.

. MS, AR, and SC are all Deep South-style states. So let's call that a push. I'm sure their campuses are beautiful, but are they really trying to say there is more entertainment and more stuff to do in those college towns compared to a small city?
Fan support? SC is of equal size if not bigger than all of those schools. OM splits it's fan base with MSU like we do with Clemson, Mizzou fans care more about pro baseball. We're known for showing up when we're bad.
Tradition. Why? Because we've always been bad. But none of those schools have some kind of "historical lure" about them that would make it preferable to coach at.
SC's stadium is bigger than all of them, and has been completely redone over the past years.
We have plenty of in-state talent.

The MSA that Fayetteville falls into went over 500,000 this past year.
