Pipeline states are a necessity in college football recruiting. If you ever played NCAA Football 14, you probably remember trying to fight to add coveted pipelines like Florida and Texas, or even gems like New Jersey. You could even recruit Canadian players. There never was an option for any overseas countries. Truth be told, outside of the U.S., Canada and Polynesia, most people assume football competition is lackluster.
Rutgers football recruiting has created a pipeline country with Sweden. The same country that gave us Ikea, ABBA and soccer star Zlatan Ibrahimoviu0107 now has strong ties to Rutgers football.
