Not sure if Podunk, Montana would be a good thing. You are from one of the very top hotbeds. There are easily hundreds of DI prospects in that area every year. If you were the hundreth top prospect, the state schools may look right past you. However, the same player can be a high priority for schools from other states that lack a large number of talented kids.
Because of the state grant, Georgia players have a difficult decision. Once U of Georgia and Tech pick their 30 or so players, other schools still can load up. Kennesaw State for one! Also, there are definite DI quality players in parts of Georgia and Florida that never end up at a DI.
