High School Pipelines

I know it said NCAA 2005 had this but I never noticed it. There are some schools that send alot of players to one school, whether that be because the head coaches have a good relationship or the players see what others have done at that school and follow in their footsteps. Therefore once 1-2 players from the same H.S. pick the same college it will be more likely that future players from that school will pick the same college. In my case I follow the Wisconsin Badgers closely and I cant remember the name of the schools off the top of my head but I know that they have gotten many players from the same high school as Ron Dayne, Chris Chambers and Jamar Fletcher.

You used the example of Wisconsin, and I'll build on that one. Back from the mid-80's to early 90's, there was a steady stream of players from Carver High School in Columbus, GA to Wisconsin.

Maybe we can hire a high school coach as an assistant in order to lure a top recruit. Not like that ever happens.
