Does football gameday atmosphere matter to basketball recruits?

Posted Sep 23, 2017
I don't know any college basketball coaches who would tell you that they don't prefer a great football atmosphere for recruiting visits. So do places like Arizona, Duke, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, North Carolina and some others seen as "basketball schools" have to have great football weekends? No. But, it sure doesn't hurt when there is fun surrounding the football programs. (Rivals.com)
