Alligator Alley

The state of Florida is a mecca for high school football talent. The debate can rage where it ranks in country, but it certainly checks in somewhere near the top. The month of May is always an important month in the Sunshine State as it relates to football recruiting with spring practices starting and college coaches invading the state looking for talent. The best part of spring football in the state of Florida is the fact the teams get to finish the month of practice with a game against another team.

It's an opportunity to see prospects compete in pads and is a welcome break from the short and tee shirt circuit which rolls from January to April in the state. That said there is no other network that had the state of Florida covered this spring better than 247Sports. Between InsideTheU.com, Noles247.com and GatorBait.net no others could match the games, jamborees or scrimmages we witnessed this spring.
