There is always enough attention to go around. There has been on occasion a few athletes that thought they were bigger then life and acted as if they need special treatment over and above what the balance of the recruits get, but I can only think of about 3 that had that attitude and turned out to be worth their salt in 15 plus years.

I can say without a doubt, the recruiting class will be treated very special but no one will be pampered above the balance of the group.

I will also say that the players who come in with the (ME) attitude at this level soooooooon learn what it is all about and that they have to earn their stripes on the field where the talent is much different then high school level ball.

As for your question, Great athletes want to play ball where they can not only have an impact, but where they have a chance to win championships. Going to the Big Ten and playing the schedule we will, as well as being on a big TV network often if not most of the time, will get these kids the exposure they want. (Or at least what they think they want, should they be good enough to make a difference). So, to answer your Q. Birds of a feather, flock together! (Yes) this is an old saying but if these kid realize that they could have a chance to wear a National Championship ring and play the type of opponents we will be playing, it should be all goooooooood!


Go Big Red!

I win or even a close game will be a great selling point to recruits.

the atmosphere these recruits are going to see will be so electrifying, there is no way that they wont be pumped for NU! win or lose they will c a great game in an awesome stadium with a VERY LOUD crowd, these recruits coming on the 16th, is a GREAT thing!

Agreed, there is a reason they scheduled so many that way. Though I think a few coming that day for NU are also considering Texas.

I believe once they're offered, it's up to the recruit to designate which weekend he'll make his official visit. He is limited in the total # of officials he can take.
It's no mystery why that game is the most popular choice (for visiting NU anyway).
