Message: [QUOTE="money3189, post: 3068841, member: 436"] 1987 was over 30 years ago. Things have changed. Harder to hide kids now with social media, hudl film, 7v7 events, recruiting sites and camps. Kids are not restricted to a few channels. They see a lot of winning teams and systems. That makes it easier to be influenced by the bright lights and teams that consistently win. The kids these days want immediate gratification.. They want to play with winners. If you don't think consecutive winning seasons don't play a huge part then I don't know what to tell you. We lose recruiting battles with teams that consistently win. We lost our influence in NJ and other kids to rutgers when they started winning. Taken Dino 4 years and It took Mac five years to get 87's results. You don't think the success of that team led to them getting better recruits? [/QUOTE]
