Message: [QUOTE="orangecuse, post: 1926758, member: 668"] I agree that in the realm of things, it doesn't matter where the recruits come from. However, SU is the only major college football program in the state of NY, so we should want to attract our state's top recruits. Duke is a small private school in NC that bleeds hoops. Not to mention the fact that the top football players in NC have UNC, NCST, USC & Clemson to compete with in their own backyards, which are programs considerably more stout on the gridiron. Stanford completes with UCLA, USC & Cal for its state's top players. So, there's a huge difference in those analogies. Moreover, Stanford's & Duke's incredibly high academic standing separates them as well when attempting to make that causal relationship. [/QUOTE]
