Message: [QUOTE="supp, post: 525819, member: 702"] The Junior Days are not just about building relationships with recruits but are also about the recruits building relationships with one another, imagining their future team based on who's been invited. It's more than just a "group grope." If you don't think recruits have an effect on each other's decisions, then you haven't been following recruiting very long. One guy committing on a visit or soon thereafter often creates a domino effect. One guy turning down an offer can have a similar effect in reverse (as we saw the past few weeks). Players want to be a part of something special and that something special often has more to do with people than it does with environment. If it was the opposite, no one of consequence would ever commit to a school like Vanderbilt. [/QUOTE]
