[QUOTE="Second and Chalmers, post: 1409723, member: 527609"] I feel like a very thorough and well-defined program identity in terms of style of play and personality of players and all the rest of it, matched with a high quality ability to scout for those things, is going to lead you to the right players better than recruiting rankings will. Generally speaking, a power conference program that is performing at a high level is pretty regularly going to have at least a couple of top 100 guys, but there are exceptions to even that. But I think the Wisconsin example is instructive. Whether it's a top 10 player in the country like Brian Butch or a young kid from the middle of nowhere with no offers like Ethan Happ, their guys are their guys. [/QUOTE]
