[QUOTE="Eight, post: 2780865, member: 73370"] smu doesn't have to out recruit texas or ou for kids. there are enough kids in the metroplex who are that next level coming out of high school who are really good players. one of the advantages of having those area relationships is coaches who see these kids and refer them back to you. one of the biggest challenges in sales no doubt is how to continue to evolve how and where you are delivering your message while staying tapped into your core markets. consider that half of the players that started for tcu last weekend are from either metroplex or houston area high schools. whether that is a good thing or not in terms of on the field performance i can't say, but it shows to me that once what were two core markets are now areas where you are struggling to have success. why? i understand expanding the focus to find talent. best example is going to ohio for a player you think is an elite defensive tackle prospect. i know i keep saying it and some disagree, but what i am told by friends who coach in high schools that tcu is slipping in terms of brand.
