Message: [QUOTE="PhatOrange, post: 469145, member: 229"] I could buy in if the recruits actually visited Syracuse first before deciding but they don't. They don't come for junior days (do we even have junior days anymore?), they don't come for unofficial visits in the spring, they don't come to camps, they don't visit officially. They are not seeing our campus and facilities first hand. Recruiting is a lot like fundraising. Need to pound the pavement and hound people. If you want to tell me that Syracuse doesn't spend the money on 50 work study students, interns, or admins working in the recruiting office like I've heard they do at Rutgers then I could buy in that we also don't spend enough on the recruiting budget. But with that said, we need to do a better job getting the kids on campus first and then worrying about their thoughts on our facilities second. [/QUOTE]
