1- Our president is fairly conservative, but the rest of the administration orgasms over the idea of "progress" and "diversity".
2- Admissions standards are getting tougher.
3- We have one of the cheapest tution rates in the country.
4- You were dead on about this. Most of the panhandle kids head to Auburn, Alabama, or LSU because they're actually CLOSER than Florida. And sometimes, students from Jacksonville and north will go to UGA.

What's left for us? Tampa, and parts of Orlando are still respectable. Most of the beach towns are good, Jacksonville, and Tallahassee. Slim pickin's.

Does Arkansas get much draw from the Missouri/Oklahoma/Kansas area?

We get great pledges from the Pensacola area. Tampa and Orlando can produce really solid guys too.
