This does not answer your question but I do remember a graphic from the bowl game that showed 43 of their players from California. They do play some pretty good FB out there and there are several JCs I believe.[/quote]...........................Know question California produces alot of Division 1 players and alot of their Rival 2 star recruits seem to pan out. Certainly Boise State, with excellent coaching, has done great with California 2 star recruits along with Fresno State etc.. I can only remember a couple of JUCO players we took from California recently being Jerad Romo (1st team QB 2005) and Troy Therien ( 2nd team DE 2006). Both turned out as good players. Recruits from California seem to like SMU and I don't remember recently any recruits from there who signed with SMU who transfered out. So it would not hurt to do a little more recruiting out there and try to find a few kids each year who can contribute.
