Observations:

* Kentucky, Tennessee and Vanderbilt are the only three SEC schools whose home state is NOT their top talent-producer.  Interestingly, all three schools had more signees from Georgia than any other state.

* Arkansas and Tennessee are the only schools in the conference to not get at least 25% of their talent from any one state.

* Mississippi State and Georgia each got a whopping 73% of their signees from inside their home states… followed by Florida (57%), LSU (48%), Ole Miss (41%), Alabama (34%), Auburn (34%) and South Carolina (30%).

* Georgia’s signees all came from just 3 states (Georgia, Florida and South Carolina).  Mississippi State and South Carolina signed talent from just five states each.

* Tennessee and Vanderbilt had to grab talent from 12 different states.  Auburn dipped into 11 states… Kentucky into 10.
