Message: [QUOTE="southofnorth, post: 2925395, member: 9132"] The same reason some people choose different brands of laundry detergent—they enjoy what they enjoy. A lot of recruits talk about the connections they made with the coaches at the schools they chose, so I imagine that the personality of the coaching staff and other players influences their decision. Rebecca Lobo said that no one made her laugh like Geno did and she felt like it was easy to talk to him and that was a huge influence on her decision. Besides having access to quality facilities and opportunities (championships, name recognition, WNBA, Olympics, etc.), having a coach that is almost like a family member and being in an environment that fosters growth and healthy team relationships are probably the main reasons recruits choose the colleges they do.
