Went to school and worked for 10 years in SoCal, prefer SoFL from Nov-July.

North of WPB of course.

I can deal with June (cool nights and good fishing).

Don't miss Nebraska, but the people are fantastic. Great peeps.

Can I also say, how great Nebraska football is for players that like to win???

Isolated. Focused. Husker Power!!!!

Nebraska football is the single most intense place for a great potential football star to focus on one single thing...

So many kids from so many places with agenda's and nonsense need to come home and win championships...

I lived in South Florida (Broward/New Jersey) for four years, and then moved north to the South and lived in Gainesville long enough to get a graduate degree. Couldn't leave the state fast enough. I think I'm still dehydrated 27 years later. (And don't get me started on the serial killers.) @_FloridaMan

Florida has been a bit of an eye opener when I temporarily moved down to WPB area in early spring. Heading back there in a week as I've been in SE Asia for a little over 4 months. I am not sure I will stay in FL though. When I drove down from Omaha, I really saw some beautiful areas in KY/TN. I'm actually going to check out the Nashville area for awhile. Seemed a bit similar to Nebraska in some ways, just a little nicer weather and not quite so flat and more places to fish. FL is just still way too hot and crowded.. sort of feel like a rat on a sand bar with only one way out. On the more crazy side, I'm also looking at Puerto Rico. Prices should be very cheap and the tax incentives are massive. Not sure if it is just a temporary hell hole, or if it will be a permanent one though.

I get it. My wife and I call the incompetence, "Florida Style"

Still, no state income tax and pretty good fishing/weather Nov-July

Great call Nikki. I wouldn't buy south of Jupiter right now. Too crowded.

The Southeast is beautiful. Smokey mountains. Myrtle Beach.

Either way, Nebraska is a great place for a kid from places of dissonance to come and play great football.

Sorry it came across that way. Not for me. 20 million people stuffed into a drowning peninsula, and 5 of them are related to me. But what do I know? I live in Iowa, for God's sake.

In 10k years, I will be under water, for sure.

Ya got me...

Until then, let's find a great coach who can recruit to Nebraska football...

Give me California over pretty much any other state in the US. Maybe Colorado, but what other state offers you surfing and snow skiing in the same day of you want, plus low humidity? There's no way in hell I would ever live in Florida.

Have been in Austin, Texas for 11 years. It still doesn't feel like "football weather" when it's 95 degrees in October.

I've seen Longhorns walking back from two-a-days in August when it's 108 outside. They look like death. Why would anybody want to play in that? Plus, the practice field is under a busy elevated freeway.

I guess home is where you make it, but Lincoln has a lot to offer unless you absolutely need 15,000 restaurant choices or year-round warm weather.

Since all NFL teams either reside in cities that get cold weather and snow, or play in opponents' stadiums that have cold and snow, I would think it an advantage to know how to deal with the weather.
