I guess the coaches got the memo. No more California kids. Stay in the dirty south

Moore is a great pick up, but I think our coaches will go where ever the best kids are from. Look at Christian Wilkins from Mass who played HS in Connecticut.

True.
But you have to wonder if they've reprioritized based on the small sample size of of California players we've recruited.
East Coast vs. West Coast mentality is different.

So you think Cali recruits are inferior based on their birth state?

Not based on the birth of their state, but rather the state of the competition at the high school level. High School Football just means more in the south.
My high school's stadium is bigger than Gardner Webb University's.
You can't hardly find that out west and especially in California. I can't speak for the whole state but I haven't seen anything like that in southern California.
So kids who grow up here typically see more advanced competition from a young age which is what gives them a step up on someone from out west typically. Not in every case but usually.

California ranked second among all U.S. states with 151 players drafted. Florida ranked third with
Active NFL players from Texas include Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes; Buffalo Bills linebacker Von Miller; Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans; Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford; Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray; San Francisco 49ers offensive tackle Trent Williams. and Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett, who rated as the top prospect from the Lone Star State for the 2014 national recruiting cycle before signing with Texas A&M.
Action Network's list of the top 10 states with the most active NFL players is listed below:
Texas- 211
California- 149
Florida- 149

Per capita California isn't that impressive. For example, it has around 4x the population of Georgia but less than twice as many pro players. Looks like it would be way down the list if population were taken into account.

grannies, or old men with squirrels hanging out their shorts. None of those produce college or NFL talent.

But to your point, the Pacific coast players are even more hamstrung by the West Coast time zone and (related) demise of the Pac 12 conference. If a tree falls in the forest and no one sees it ...

for the rest of your natural life for simultaneously displaying an ungodly amount of ignorance and innate stupidity regarding the subject of regional recruiting while
ernestly opining on the subject–
—on general principle alone the ban
applies to the Reservation as well—

I believe he was referring to how well our last few Cali players turned out:
DJ - Bust
Ngata - Bust
Beaux Collins - not a bust yet, but has not necessarily lived up to recruit ranking so far. A big year for him this season would change that.

The sample size is too small to draw any meaningful empirical data? Generally the bare minimum of a sample size is 30. The sample size is not too small; the sample size DOES NOT yet exist—
