Western Michigan continues to be one of the Mid-American Conference's biggest recruiters in talent-rich Florida.
The Broncos' 24-member signing class includes 12 players who hail from the Sunshine State. Coach Bill Cubit loves the speed and talent levels of players in Florida.
"The thing is, (in the Midwest, players) get a Big Ten offer, done," Cubit said. "(In Florida), I can beat Big Ten schools down there.
"All they want is trust down there. It's a lot different down there. ... You can beat (big schools) down there because (players) don't really care. 'Is it Division I? Do they play a good schedule? And are they going to take care of me?' That's what they care about. It doesn't make any sense to take guys in surrounding states you can't win with."
