Anybody else noticing what an incredible job recruiting Zeke Jones is doing at Arizona State? Wow, count em', four of the top 30 ranked seniors going to the same school. Three of the top 12 (Valencia brothers and L. Benick). I know very little about the school.....what's the draw for young kids? Is it Jones? I would love to hear other opinions!
Maybe they are paying them to come there ? ;D
I would start with Zeke, yes. Throw in Pendleton, Pritts, a great facility that will be remodeled in the next few years, Sunkist, an amazing location, a good education and a great booster program and there you go. I'm sure this isn't the end of the recruiting trail for Zeke and Co. I could see them adding at least one more big name recruit, if not two.
Weather is great (imagine taking that visit in winter), Zeke, and Sunkist. They also benefit from not having as high of enrollment standards as most B1G schools or Ivies.
Just walk the campus for about 30 minutes and you will see why it might be a big draw for 18 year old boys. The "scenery" is simply stunning ;)
don't they have a RTC and hosted some of the national team the last couple of years too?

;D Something tells me this will not be a co-ed field trip. ;)
Yes dad 2 5, they do have a RTC which Sunkist is run out of. The US World team just had a camp there at the end of June where not only the best Senior level guys were there, but also University and Junior level guys as well. I'm sure that doesn't hurt with recruiting if you ask Zeke. No different that Barry and Mitch bringing in the Cadet National team. Get them to Madison early in their career, oh and in the summer.
