Looks great! I did something similar to this back in 2014. It surprisingly still runs: https://labratrevenge.com/cfb-recruiting/
Awesome! I really like the visualization.
It seems like college towns have a lot of players even if they are small, what's the reason for that?
Sometimes the football culture is big in those specific places. Also generational players (kids of coaches/players) stick around the area. Walk-ons, as well.
(vanilla JS + Vite + MapLibre, data source = CFBD, audited 15K records to find ~250 misplaced ones
Nice job!
Thank you! Anything you particularly liked about it? Any additional feature you'd like to see? No pressure.
