Looks like the number of foreign athletes taking scholarship money away from home grown kids has surged in recent years. 2/3rds are in Division I schools.

I guess in Alabama people from out of the country and out of the state are considered 'foreigners.'
As long as somebody is from one of the states in the SEC, then he/she is not considered a foreigner. ;)
