have to ask the tough question: is admissions the reason we're not getting those players?

In other words, of all these top players who spurn our advances, are they typically not being admitted? If that's true then we need to focus on this admissions issue.

IF several of them were or are admissible but are rejecting us (other than KLS whom unfortunately we may understand even if we disagree), that is different and may point to different issues such as not being viewed as a  rising or young, exciting program? Think about all the recruits Duke gets just because it's a great school despite the fact that IMHO the coach has done a miserable job with that talent pool. (Personally I think they should fire her and hire Tara's sister!)
