Tell me why state loyalty is so low that we cant keep good players at home.

Referring to football? Coach staff has a lot to do with it. No confidence in them at all. Basketball is a different story. We get great recruits there!

Crappy teams?

You can't be talking about Basketball, 10 out of 12 players on the Roster are from IL, with 4 more locals committed next year. Probably the highest percentage of own state recruits of any major program in the country.

yeah basketball is doing great for local recruits.

Football has some work to be done. I don't think Illinois is getting as much exposure as say, Ohio State or Michigan.
