Maybe Ramsay liked the scenery better in Westwood than at the Farm.  UCLA has a long tradition of using super hot hostesses for orientation of recruits.

Host programs are a logistical necessity for football programs, said Todd Crosset, associate professor of sports management at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. They’re the equivalent of tour guides for athletes, and for a football team that’s recruiting dozens of students during a time when coaches are busy, hosts play an important role.  In a way, the use of attractive women to recruit football players is byproduct of the college athletics system, Crosset said. The NCAA rules limit what universities can do to charm athletes. “The one thing universities can offer is attractive classmates, and the idea that you’re going to be high status, so that’s what they’ve been selling,” he said.

My son was recruited by the University of Florida. We went down there and his hostess was nice enough, but she was no looker. I guess he wasn't high enough priority.
