Taking recruits from other states has risks as shown by the number from Florida that have transferred from Rutgers.I prefer NJ recruits because it minimizes family concerns and its less costly on the recruiting budget.
And NJ kids don't transfer out (Huggins, Shuler, etc.)? We need to recruit out of state in addition to NJ. NJ is a great place to cherry pick from but build your entire program around? Not enough there even if you got the top 20 every year.
