"Favorable conditions to draw from..." sure doesn't sound like you're saying it's about dollars.
Who cares if there's 6 million people to pull from. If they're all second-level talen, you end up with a team full of second-level talent. Bob Dole's point is that there doesn't appear to be a lot of talent leaving the state for bigger programs. There just doesn't appear to be a lot of talent in Missouri.
