Fred Glass mentioned that he wanted his next coach to recruit the state of Indiana.
Tom Crean, clearly, didn't do a great job of that later on in his career. There's a pretty good majority of people who would say that Indiana should recruit its state well.
But I had a friend today ask me why it matters. Why does it matter where the kid comes from? And I had a hard time answering it.
So I'm asking you guys. Why does it matter to you that Indiana recruits Indiana kids? Or does it not matter? I'm curious to see the thought process.
