With Kill/Tracy our closing percentage was pretty good on recruits that visited. Almost always the recruits said it's the best visit ever. They typically go to the Mall of America. They visit that awesome, unlike any other locker room and get their picture taken in a Gopher jersey. They eat at some fancy restaurant and maybe have their most expensive meal ever on the house. Now we have the athletes village rising up out of the ground. We have a great campus to tour. If you can add a sold out raucous game at Williams Arena like today...wow! Gotta be pretty tempting!

Then the difference maker....add PJ bouncing off walls, painting word pictures of Big Ten Championships and NFL careers etc Add in the Fortune 500 companies and how people who come to the UofM spend the rest of their lives here because they love the Twin Cities and Minnesota. You got the Twins, Wild, Timberwolves and Vikings to go see games. Add it all up and I think a lot of guys are going to say YES to PJ enthusiasm!
