At Texas, I think it is safe to say the very top end GLOs get most of their numbers out of a very few high schools. So that right there establishes a lot of how the tier system works.
EE-BO, a little off topic, but, I've been wondering how the top 10% rule (especially this year, which was brutal) will affect this, and the greek system as a whole.

As it becomes more and more difficult to get in UT, less and less of your typical "fraternity type" guys are getting accepted. I know that at our high school this year, pretty much NOBODY who would normally go "top tier" got in. They are mostly all heading to A&M, which was their second choice, but they got accepted there. These boys include some strong, big dollar, legacy types to "top tier" houses at Texas.

Will an opening up to non-feeder type schools have to occur to keep up the quality of the pledges?

I know when I mentioned some of the guys who are going to Texas from our high school to my son, his comment was, "Well, they'll make great ...'s", meaning, he wouldn't tell his rush chairmen about them - so guys are going to have to come from somewhere
