My thought is that this can be great for Stanford recruiting. This gives him an opportunity to meet with athletes that might decide to choose Stanford (as a freshman or a transfer). For others, the fact that he was chosen for this position is another bullet point in favor of Stanford. It also might give Haase better insight into what is important for this cohort of athletes, perhaps giving him a better footing to know what to emphasize to a potential recruit. (Obviously he already is on top of what is important for recruits, but spending time with more of them may give him further insight.)
