The # 1 pick in the entire draft in 2013 was an OT from Central Michigan. The top 2 OT's taken in the last 3 drafts were not from SEC.

If they are good enough, they will go high... period. The SEC resides in the Deep South. The most fertile recruiting region in the country. Demographics. It's that simple.

---

How many were from the Big 12?

---

NFL - grouped all OL's together into one position category.

2017 OL Drafted (32)
SEC - 6 (4 tackles)
Big12 - 1 (0 tackles)

2016 OL Drafted (41)
SEC - 12 (5 tackles)
Big12 - 5 (2 tackles)

2015 OL Drafted (46)
SEC - 11 (5 tackles)
Big 12 - 4 (3 tackles)

2014 OL Drafted (45)
SEC - 11 (5 tackles)
Big 12 - 2 (1 tackle)

SEC has more tackles drafted than Big 12 OL's drafted (centers, guards and tackles) for each of the past 4 years.

I have already addressed this. First, there are only 10 teams in Big 12. Second, the Deep South is the most fertile recruiting region in the country. The SEC is in the middle of all that. Follow the heat maps of 4 and 5 stars and it falls in line with black demographics of Urbin areas and Deep South areas of country. Like 70% of NFL rosters are blacks. The states with most blacks per capita send most nfl players per capita.

Now, certain areas are better at certain positions. Texas, QBs and skill players. Deep South almost everything... but perhaps lagging in Pro QBs. Big 10 corn fed white boy OL, etc. it's a regional thing. But overall the sec has a huge advantage with blacks per capita. No surprise most nfl players come out of sec.

---

Weird how the Big 12, with 40% of the schools in Texas, one of the states with the most NFL players in the country, and with at least two other schools (OU and OSU) that primarily recruit Texas, and they still can't seem to get that many draft picks.



I guess the AAC is located deeper south than the Big 12 though. That's why they had more draft picks this past year.

---

So you are telling me the Deep South is not the most fertile recruiting ground in the country?



Go look up blacks per capita state statistics, then go look up nfl players per capita by state.

Texas of course has plenty of NFL players. It's still in the South. But a lot come from urban areas and East Texas, which is closest to Deep South. Sheer population volume as well.

You have essentially have 10 schools recruiting Texas. Florida alone covers that. Plus the rest of the states in the sec.

Martin had a rough year for us. I wouldn't be surprised to see him transfer out this spring.

If he graduates this spring, it wouldn't surprise me if he joined his dad and father in law at Syracuse for his final season as a graduate transfer.

---

His dad is also a coach for them now.

Can you imagine playing for both your Dad and Wife's Dad?

---

I know his dad is a coach for them now. That's why I said "his dad and father in law".

You must've meant to quote technoviking who only mentioned father in law

No I'm saying any school from Texas doesn't have any excuse to not putting players into the NFL. The state of Texas has the third most players in the NFL.

Thanks for letting us all know that apparently, there is such a thing as black privilege though.

Just stop. SEC has 40% more teams but has 300% more OL's drafted by NFL. Fewer teams doesn't answer the disparity.

Regarding your nonsense about QB's. Almot 1/3 (11/32) of Wk1 2017 NFL starting QB's played their HS ball in the Deep South.

* 2 From FL

Really? This is your response? Cmon Ag, you are better than this. Your reading comprehension is lacking.

I NEVER said less teams makes up for disparity. Simply pointing out the error in comparison. Hardly the main point. And I clearly pointed out that TX specializes in QBs. Each region is a bit different but Deep South overall has the most talent across the board. It's undebatable. Per capita the Deep South puts more NFL players into the league.

Here we go again. Black privelage? The NBA is 75% Black for example. Do you have a problem with that? I don't. The best players will play. Blacks are 13% of the population and make up 60-70% of NFL rosters. The Deep South and urban cores of this country heavily supply the NFL with players. The urban cores and Deep South have most blacks per capita. It's just simple facts, it's how it is. Geezus...

This thread is being led down an irrelevant rathole by the teasip. What point is he trying to make? That the SEC has the best players? This has nothing to do with our potential new recruit anymore.

Follow the bouncing ball. Anderson is not going to get drafted any lower if he went to Texas than say A&M. Period. But it will always be a major talking point by aggies. But just showing the true data behind it all.

Your entire point is that the reason the SEC has more draft players than the Big 12 because there are more black people in the South.

Even though the data shows that Texas has the third most NFL players in the NFL. It's incredibly illogical. You are also getting out drafted by the PAC, the Big 10, the ACC, and even the AAC.

So tell me, how can a state that has the third-most NFL players from it, and at the same time, the conference that the majority of the recruits come from Texas, can't even produce as much NFL talent as the AAC? Where is the discrepancy?

I don't usually feed the trolls, but there are serious flaws in the logical discourse and reasoning being propounded by the teasip.

Fortunately, a guy like Anderson with a degree in mathematical economics can decipher those.

Anderson wants to go to a place where he will a) get excellent hands-on coaching that can help him improve his technique and b) let him prove himself against the best competition, with solid evidence on film for the NFL, to improve his draft stock.

A&M qualifies on both counts and arguing that the SEC provides the best level of competition but that this is not relevant is circular reasoning at best.

Texas is is pretty much propping up the Big 12 almost all by itself. Your own state. Almost all by itself. When you watch the Big12 you are essentially watching your own fellow Texans. Of course not every player but a very very large percentage. SEC with Florida alone counters that. Not to mention the rest of the South that typically ranks st the top of every lists of states nfl players per capita. This isn't rocket science.

The black demographics of the South is a MASSIVE reason the SEC puts so many players in the league. This is indisputable. I'm sorry some of you are unwilling to accept this.

Anyone compare the demographics of college fb teams in the big ten vs sec? Does the sec have that many more blacks per team than the big ten? Fact is the sec still produces more pros. And Anderson happens to be black. And wants to play in the pros.

Not the ACC. The AAC. They got more players drafted than the Big 12. Of the 4 players drafted in the first round from Texas, 2 were from the SEC, one was from the Big 10, and one was from Big 12 (tech).

Why is 75% of the top Texas talent being developed by other conferences than the one centrally located there?

Explain why the sips can almost never place an offensive lineman in the NFL draft. What, one in the last 10 years or so? Are the demographics in Austin really that different than in College Sta? This kid from Rice is trying to improve. The available data shows that sipville is not where one attends if they want to play offensive lineman in the NFL. Sorry, but it's the truth.

This thread is being led down an irrelevant rathole by the teasip. What point is he trying to make? That the SEC has the best players? This has nothing to do with our potential new recruit anymore.

---

Follow the bouncing ball. Anderson is not going to get drafted any lower if he went to Texas than say A&M. Period. But it will always be a major talking point by aggies. But just showing the true data behind it all.

---

Your entire point is that the reason the SEC has more draft players than the Big 12 because there are more black people in the South.

Even though the data shows that Texas has the third most NFL players in the NFL. It's incredibly illogical. You are also getting out drafted by the PAC, the Big 10, the ACC, and even the AAC.

So tell me, how can a state that has the third-most NFL players from it, and at the same time, the conference that the majority of the recruits come from Texas, can't even produce as much NFL talent as the AAC? Where is the discrepancy?

---

Texas is is pretty much propping up the Big 12 almost all by itself. Your own state. Almost all by itself. When you watch the Big12 you are essentially watching your own fellow Texans. Of course not every player but a very very large percentage. SEC with Florida alone counters that. Not to mention the rest of the South that typically ranks st the top of every lists of states nfl players per capita. This isn't rocket science.

The black demographics of the South is a MASSIVE reason the SEC puts so many players in the league. This is indisputable. I'm sorry some of you are unwilling to accept this.

---

You didn't answer my question. How can the conference centered in Texas, which has the third most NFL players out of the nation, produce less draft picks than the AAC? Why is there such a discrepancy?

---

Yes I did. You aren't listening. Big 12, what 4 states total including Texas? Big 12 supported almost entirely by Texas. ACC what, 12 states including Florida and other Deep South states?

---

Explain why the sips can almost never place an offensive lineman in the NFL draft. What, one in the last 10 years or so? Are the demographics in Austin really that different than in College Sta? This kid from Rice is trying to improve. The available data shows that sipville is not where one attends if they want to play offensive lineman in the NFL. Sorry, but it's the truth.

---

Since he won't honestly answer, I will. The entire big 12 is having trouble developing ANY talent well enough to get drafted by the NFL. As a result, recruits from Texas are now going to other conferences because they know the coaches in the Big 12 aren't as likely to get them to play on Sundays.

The talent from this state is third in the nation. The likelihood that talent makes it to the NFL if the choose the Big 12 is low.

The recruits want to play in a real conference.

The BDF is just a glorified Conference USA.

Anderson tells SI that A&M may move into his Top 5 following his trip to Auburn this weekend. If AU doesn't seal the deal, A&M coaches are next up.

We got on him late. Hard to expect much.

I agree.

Calvin keeps citing his desire to play against the best. That is definitely the SEC.

Buzz is that Michigan isn't feeling confident. Also, a kid with the same namesake keeps getting messages on Twitter - including a DM from Gus Malzahn.

Let's get this thread back on point. Is he interested in playing for us? Did we offer him a scholarship? If not, are we going to? What are the chances that he ends up signing with us?

Now that we have examined the NFL probability of regional demographics confounded by NCAA conference choice.....Yes.

1. Interest is present and A&M is most likely #5 on his current list.
2. He received an offer on NSD, making Texas A&M a late entry into his recruitment.
3. He officially visited Auburn this weekend. If AU didn't seal the deal, A&M coaches should get an official visit with him.


The current landscape for Anderson is as follows:

TU is the unquestioned front runner. They were the first to recruit him, his mother graduated TU law school, his father is stationed in Killeen, he is from Westlake, and the Auburn OL coach that recruited him is now at TU. However, everything is perfect in Austin except the football and that has him looking for the best school to help him reach his NFL goals.

Also, per Twitter, Taylor Hamm is the only source of A&M info he is following......which is odd.

Don't mean to bump three times in a row but just saw where AL.com published a story about his Auburn visit.

No mention of Texas A&M but there are some notable quotes:

Quote:

---

"Auburn is just SEC; I think that is the best way to differentiate them, is the conferences," Anderson said Sunday. "Every conference is known for a different thing. I think SEC is just a bigger -- I don't know. Big is what comes to mind. It's like a synonym. Bigger opponents, bigger stage, bigger platform."

---

Quote:

"A lot of it speaks for itself," Anderson said. "Obviously SEC football is the biggest football you can play at the collegiate level. I think some of the other things I was impressed with was the marketing strategy and the things they do with the SEC Network. They showed me the camera they have downstairs where they do ESPN interviews. They showed me the specific plan they'll have for me with the seven months I'll be here, so that was really good to see."

Anderson's trip to Auburn will be a "big factor" in his final decision.

"I think they helped themselves greatly," Anderson said. "I already thought pretty highly of Auburn and I didn't know much about it, and now that I know a lot more than I did, I think they went from being great to more great."

---

It sounds like he only looked at Auburn due to the SEC. Should be interesting if Turner and Co get a chance to show him the A&M side of the SEC + the chance to play Clemson + NFL marketing possibilities.

That is a lot of positive comments for the SEC.

Doesn't he realize it doesn't matter where he goes? A tsip told me so.

The recruitment of Calvin Anderson should be a moment of sobriety for sip fans.

They have an OL they desperately need, they have every advantage in their favor, and despite stealing his top recruiter from Auburn, they still can't close the deal. Texas' level of football is so weak that playing in Austin is more of a deterrent than draw to those looking for an NFL boost.

But but but, if he goes to Ut in Austin He would live in a city where everyone carries a bag of dildos and not a gloc!

He has many reasons to commit to Austin, but he still has not.

I think he is trying to get a better date to the prom. tu is his fall back. His cousin from Canada.

Non Issue, he made it very clear from the beginning his time frame for making a decision was his birthday, March 25th.
