i completely understand with what you are saying, i don't believe that it is as extreme of an advantage as people might think, but it is still an advantage nonetheless. Rollredroll is correct about the memphis schools being able to attract students from mississippi and arkansas, but having played for cbhs, that none of our players (at least to my knowledge) lived out of state. I know of alot of students that lived out of state but to my recollection, there were none that played ball. However, that possibility is still there.
