Gosh, I didn't realize Ace was ancient history :rolleyes:!

You know it's interesting: I'm not certain the great NY/NJ players have that many top D1 options: UConn and Maryland are right there, but Rutgers has lost its luster and Penn State had a run a few years back, but has seemingly receded into the B1G pack. The ACC and certain B1G schools are and will be a draw. And others that are far away have allure for various reasons (Florida, LA schools, Stanford).

That said, I get your point...I think most players are going to feel comfortable in places that feel right to them. And most of those are places that are away...but not too far away or have lots of kids from the region (ND, Michigan, for example), says the father of 3 college grads and one current senior.

Celeste Taylor's dad may have gone to Texas, but I'll bet most of the other schools she considers are going to be a lot closer. Ditto for 2019's Faith Masonius, Diamond Miller, Michelle Sidor and Lauren Hansen.
