No, I think you are right here. Surgical recruiting was my point, hence, the 1-2 top tier arms or bats I feel that hold them back from getting to that “national brand” or status as an elite national program…there is no recruiting pitch I was speaking of, rather the ability and draw to a program in the northeast by an SEC lifer shouldn’t be an outlier or unreasonable expectation. I’m referring to a couple top tier guys that move the needle that happen to be from the south. If they happen to be from out west, who cares.  Wherever those reside, find a way to get em. Even 2 guys a recruiting cycle. To go down south and recruit against a southern miss or coastal Carolina using weather n opportunity as primary pitch, would be a waste. It is a legit option for a top tier level talent to sign out of hs, they simply don’t know it. The facilities, weather all matter, but only so much. If your considering UConn in the slightest, those likely aren’t gonna sway a recruit either way. Just my opinion. To your point, finding an “ in” in outta state recruiting is always important.
