Message: [QUOTE="Stern, post: 3486260, member: 527"] [B][U]Yes...Yes...and a BIG YES!! [/U][/B]When it comes to recruiting its 100% always about "recency bias". I have said that for years [I](I know many on this board will disagree)[/I]. Old folks don't understand the mind of a teenager! Trying to sell a high school junior or senior on what Jim Brown or what McNabb did (using Syracuse as an example) is a waste of time it means nothing. They care about what happened last year and what they saw on ESPN last week or last month or a few months ago. What you CAN sell them on is the ACC plays its game come hell or high water, pandemic or not. While that Big 10 school you are talking to, well you might lose a year and it will hurt your NFL draft status down the road. That's all it will take to convince kids in recruiting. I hope the Big 10 and Pac 12 sit on their hands and don't reverse course, it will help SU in recruiting [/QUOTE]
