Here's a pretty cool interactive map showing every college player's hometown. Takes a while to load and if you try on a mobile without being connected to wifi...good luck!
"Across the entire FBS, players comes from an average of 446 miles away to attend school."
Our players come from an average distance of 265 miles to attend App.

We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

Re: Mapping every player's hometown
Pretty interesting list. As an aside, really surprised to see Miami nearer the top of the chart than the bottom (avg. 533 miles away). That's probably not a good thing for them, considering how much the dominated recruiting "the state of Miami" in their heyday.
