From Louisiana and had season tickets for the Tigers for 40+ years.
Live in Texas for past 30 years. Sons were all district and had division 2 offers. I am also the PA announcer so I watch a lot of JV and varsity high school football in Texas. Mostly 4A and 5A schools.
Difference between LA and Texas football: for the larger schools, each Louisiana Friday night has 4-8 D1 players on the field. In Texas, it is 1-3 for each game. Lots of teams spread out over long distances…

This is VERY accurate. The number of high schools in the north Texas metroplex is staggering, and almost all of them have 1 or 2 D1 scholarship players. The Deep South is much more concentrated.

Texas is also like at least three times the geographical size of some of the bigger SEC states

Looks like a good chunk of the Midwest is over represented, not just Iowa

Georgia 6A (about to be 7A again) is usually the hardest HS playoff bracket in the country. Just had a national title game (Buford beating Carrollton).

Dont know about GA but in FL & LA schools like Miami Central and Walker-Landry in NO still win HSFB Chips at the highest levels. That level of nastiness shows up at the CFB level...The Houston HSFB neighborhood equivalents would be burnt out, gutted out schools like Jones, Worthing, Yates and Forest Brook who dont win shite...Could be a correlation. Congrats to North Shore-Houston for shutting down Dville-Dallas (again) for the 6AD1 TXHSFB Chip.
