When the sun rises on National Signing Day Wednesday, we’ll keep you up to date on the signees for each and every SEC school. One of the things we’ll be studying? Where the SEC’s 2013 talent come from.

A quick look at recent signing day results tells us that 14 states in the SEC area tend to produce either a large portion of league signees or a large portion of 4- and 5-star recruits who could have been league signees. Those states are Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and the non-SEC states of North Carolina, Virginia, and Ohio.

Below we’ve broken some interesting numbers down for you. We’ve looked at prospects who were graded by Rivals.com as being 4- or 5-star players. We’ve looked at the 2010, 2011, and 2012 signing classes. We’ve taken note of only those players attending high school or prep school in a given state. And finally, we’ve gone back to see how many of those top prospects a) signed with schools in their home state and

signed with current SEC programs.
