[QUOTE="Obelix, post: 1409744, member: 7292"] Good point, but relatively speaking Kansas and Kentucky (and to a lesser degree Duke) always had more media, and national TV presence even back then. The big difference IMO has been AAU, where most recruits spend a lot more time always traveling in their off season out of state on the Nike/Adidas/Under Armor national circuits and events constantly interacting with multiple coaches/recruiters than back in the 80s. But good recruiters adapt to different dynamics and there are always good recruiters in every era. [/QUOTE]
