EVERY Sun Belt team ???

You are right...LOL...I guess I forgot to add the "except UNT in the SBC". However, that little detail aside, it's evident "most" SBC teams are, at least, going to Florida to "try" and get some players ("recruiting them") from this state. Additionally, we have EVERY "Major" conference in the nation represented in trying to recruit players in South Florida, let alone Florida.

Who has Florida players in their rosters from the SBC: FIU, FAU, WKU, MTSU, Troy, ULL, ULM, and ASU. Who doesn't? UNT.

Good Lord Troy, The AMOUNT of JUCO's you guys get is borderline ridiculous. LOL

Not really...as you may know, TROY utilizes oversigning very efficiently and many of the juco players are sign and place guys. Some find their way to other programs, but the majority want to grow the program...I'll be the first to admit these last two were a pleasant surprise. As some of the pro players help to keep our school get press time, younsters like Khary Franklin will be more abundant.
