emy I think that there is a very very very very small percent that is money spent. I agree it seems like its hardly even there.

Z, I'm sure there is, but if it does exist, I agree, the money factor has to be a very small piece of the puzzle.

Basically I think it is a part so that they can say "we have some control over ineli's coming to school or not" but not enough that it really is that way.

I think the number one factor is the prestige of the school compared to the ranking of the plsayer - if a kid is delighted to be recruited by a school, he is more likely to enroll - if he is a reach, less likely

second - randomness

third - effort spent - I'm convinced it has an effect, less that #1 above

fourth - MAY be that some kids are more likely to juco - is it in the same sort of traits as predict redshirt??? dont know

I'm pretty positive 4 is well above 3. I think 3 if it's even a factor is so minimal that it shouldn't even be factored in because the other reasons far outweigh it.
