Recruits probably read the "Gopherhole" so I with personal experience can attest to this statement. Talking about the weather.
I would rather live in Minnesota than Miami if I had to be there the entire 12 months. This is probably true with all other southern cities, also.
Yes the 2 or 3 months during the heart of winter can be undesirable but let me tell you the 4 or 5 months of the heat during the summer practice and early football season is worse!!!
The tough months in Minnesota are the off season for football players when hitting the books in the dorm room is necessary. "Down South" is just the opposite.
Fortunately, I have the best of two worlds with 6 months at each place. Not so when you are a college football player.
