When it comes to having potential college football players, Hawaii plays bigger than its size.
Based off 247 Sports' evaluations, Hawaii has 22 Football Bowl Subdivision prospects. That's more than states on the East Coast (Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island and Vermont), the Midwest (Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Wisconsin), the South (Arkansas, South Carolina, West Virginia) and the West (Alaska, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico and Wyoming).
To those who know football recruiting this is no shock. For many years, the Washington Huskies scoured Hawaii for talent.
