As much as there would be concern about other schools getting involved, there is momentum with the program generated by some home games like Florida State, Seton Hall and recent Big Ten wins like Wisconsin and Iowa.
These other schools at some point have their ships accounted for and there is an opportunity at RU to contribute and be an impact recruit, paired with another impact recruit like Mathis, Carter on the interior and a developing Ron Harper.....the play of Baker and Sanders becoming more consistent all help.
The RAC and student sections coming back into the fold and making home games an event, also give recruits the change they need to see developing.
Obviously seeing the practice facility ground breaking and other major moves also turns heads for the future. Hyatt will not be asked to carry the load, he'll share that culture change with others....There really isn't anything a player of his caliber gets elsewhere, that he cannot get closer to his home....the 20 game B1G schedule and B1G tournament, plus games like Seton Hall etc, is a challenge that gives a player something to shoot for. There will be no absence of positive press and "buzz" if Hyatt reclassifies and joins Mathis....and RU....
