Honest question - why do we recruit so many international players? Does CJF not have good recruiting ties domestically? 

Maybe he likes to travel internationally. If so, what better way to do it for free?

Just hard to go against the big schools. Overseas kids know about him and our program and know they'll be accepted, not talking scholastics, here. He does recruit in the country as seen by the new FR coming in this year. And some of the internationals are transfers.

Also worth noting that this was an adaptation during his time here. Our first run of great teams was all domestic players (or mostly domestic).

Doesn't make a damned bit of difference to me where he recruits them. He wins - and has for years, like few other programs on campus.

Others have explained CJF’s reasons.  I’d say that he’s been successful overall with this strategy. He’s won more games as a coach than I have. 

All that being said, I do wish he would consider trying to get local talent. A good example is  Diamond Battles, the 2022 AAC player of the year. She played high school ball  at Winter Haven High School, 49 miles away from the YC. Would have preferred that she played for us instead of Oviedo State…

A secondary benefit could be having more having more people attend the games to see local kids play.  While we have good attendance compared to most schools, there is plenty of room in the YC for more fans. 

Just my $.02.
