"Lebron Effect" for College Football Recruits

I thought this was a great read about the change in the recruiting landscape where top level recruits and trying to play with each other which they call the "Lebron Effect".

ESPN.com conducted a wide-ranging survey of the top 300 high school football recruits in the nation, and 68.5 percent of the respondents said they would rather join a class full of other elite recruits than be a big name on their own.

This is a shift in mentality from decades past. The Jordan days it was all about being on your own team and beating everyone else and nowadays its about getting the "super team" to win. I hope our coaches are using this as much as they possibly can.
