"Why the SEC Dominates College Football, in Six Charts"

Snippet: "The most powerful recruiting promise of all is a pipeline to the NFL. And the Southeast is by far the most fertile territory in the United States for finding and grooming NFL players. The chart below shows the top 14 states (plus Washington D.C.) by number of first- and second-round NFL draft picks since 2000, per million residents. (Thanks to Alex Bresler at Aragorn for the player data.) Seven are states with SEC schools whose football teams make a point of signing the best players born in their backyards."

It's telling that the West Coast is absent from the aforementioned chart. ~:)
