Wrong — SEC schools have large numbers of kids OOS [/quote]

That’s not really true…only Alabama really does with 60% OOS.

The top schools like UGA, UT and Florida don’t because they purposely restrict OOS (UGA is probably highest at 20%).

The bottom tier academic schools don’t because they just aren’t particularly coveted by OOS…schools like Ole Miss and LSU are also 80%+ in state.

Now 20% of these schools is a decent # of kids.[/quote]

I'd bet only one SEC school has more than 30% OOS.  That one is probably 90%+ and is outside all of the terms of this thread.[/quote]
U Mississippi 35% in-state/63% out of state
Clemson 52% in-state/46% out of state
Georgia Tech 56% in-state/35% out of state

Well, the bottom two are ACC schools….[/quote]
Sorry. Of the full SEC (list per google), 11 have 30%+ OOS, and only three (in TX and FL) have <30% OOS:

Kentucky 61% in state/37% OOS
Florida 80% in state/15% OOS
Alabama 35% in state/65% OOS
Arkansas 39% in state/60% OOS
Auburn 58% in state/41% OOS
LSU 65% in state/34% OOS
South Carolina 52% in state/47% OOS
Missouri 70% in state/30% OOS
Ole Miss 35% in state/63% OOS
Texas A&M 93% in state/6% OOS
Mississippi State 59% in state/40% OOS
Oklahoma 53% in state/45% OOS
Tennessee 54% in state/45% OOS
Texas 88% in state/8% OOS

Point being that the poster guessing that only one SEC school has under 30% OOS was very incorrect, as was the poster guessing that LSU and Ole Miss were 80%+ in state.
