Message: [QUOTE="leftytg, post: 946237, member: 2651"] Notre Dame can recruit nationally because they are an elite college football brand, stemming from their historical success. Stanford can recruit nationally because they are an elite academic institution in a major college football conference (and unlike Duke isn't overshadowed by their basketball team). Syracuse is neither of these things. It takes an incredible amount of mental gymnastics to conclude that Syracuse is "recruiting nationally". Recruiting Florida (along with nearly every other school in the country) and leveraging personal contacts in the Chicago/St. Louis region simply does not qualify as recruiting nationally. [/QUOTE]
