In reply to: Louisville has done exactly that posted by Cards86

Louisville being a public school likely has some lower tuition rates for Kentucky and neighboring states, so it makes a lot of sense to go after the best they can get in the region as it means they can work with more meaningful half scholarships.

ND on the other hand can't give the players families anything close to the lower payment that Louisville and the local states schools. Let's also face the fact that ND's admissions standards also shrink the pool a bit as well.

Given that ND has to fight an uphill battle for money, weather, and admission standards, I still believe it makes sense to make sure a wide of net as possible is cast. That isn't to say that they shouldn't make efforts on local talent, but ND can't compete on local alone.
