Nah its more nurture than anything. Just like how Jamaica with like 2 million people dominates track. They take that shyt seriously on the island and so they have much greater success given their limited population size.

I disagree. Nurture definitely plays a factor but the population boom/industry is why you see so much of it. Its the same reason why so much NFL talent comes from a tiny state like New Jersey. It may be a small area but it's the most densely populated state in the entire country. After the baby boom with so many ppl in such little space, the competition became ridiculously fierce for generations and it resulted in an alarming rate of superstar FB players. The fact that the Giants Jets and Eagles played nearby and their big NFL culture definitely helped though.

There are other places that take football just as seriously as western PA but haven't produced that quantity and quality of talent (in the past). Theres levels to the shyt is all im saying

They WERE eating for a while... they used to have titles for days... then the place became a coaching turnstile. They can't keep a coach for more than 2 years anymore. it pretty much became a basketball school
