In addition to Florida, South Carolina, Georgia, LRS Sports Recruiting Services has added Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama to our available states. With the addition of these states in the Southeast, LRS Sports Recruiting now has five of the 10 leading states where NFL players come from.
To help Dwight Thomas with coverage of these additional states, three new Recruiting Specialists have joined LRS Sports Derrick Crudup, and George Spencer. All three are former players and coaches. They know football in the Southeast. These guys played the game, won national championships, coached NCAA Hall of Champion inductees, and know who the best student athletes are on any given playing field.
