METHODOLOGY

But I only focus on the best players who multiple top schools want, meaning the Scorecard is limited to just four- and five-star players in the 247Sports Composite.
To make sure I am evaluating who is recruiting Florida prospects the best, I exclude players from IMG Academy (an elite football boarding school) who are not from the state. There is little tying those players to the state and my research shows they are likely to return to their home region to play their college football.

A rolling four-year average also provides an interesting look.
2005-08: 60% of Florida blue-chips stayed in-state.
2009-12: 52%
2013-16: 47%
2017-20: 47%

Again, a rolling four-year average also provides an interesting look.
2005-08: 66% of Florida top-100 recruits stayed in-state.
2009-12: 58%
2013-16: 56%
2017-20: 44%

Thanks for providing the visuals crown.
That state is loaded. All 3 programs should routinely be in the top 10 with top 5’s mixed in.

It looks like UF might be the strongest of the three going forward.

Sure does. That is good news for folks who want to see uga and uf battle it out going forward.
Amazing what happened to FSU after winning a national title.

Gonna take FSU a while, even Miami looks to be ahead of them as far as rebuilding their rep with recruits

True. That does make Florida not being top 3-5 even more perplexing. While 2 struggle, the other should be taking full advantage no matter who it is
