Can someone help?

They recruit the state, plain and simple, and they have had success. When you get one kid and they succeed, it opens the door.

They hired A&M's assistant who was the lead recruiter for Robinson, then also hired his uncle (I think it's his uncle). My guess is one of the main reasons they landed Anderson is because of robinson.

Shammond Williams is a former assistant at Tulane and is Mitchell Robinson's godfather. He is now an assistant at WKU
Rick Stansbury is the head coach at WKU, is a lights-out recruiter and was recruiting Robinson for Texas A&M, where he was an assistant before taking over the Hilltoppers program.
Stansbury was also the longtime coach at Mississippi State.
Quannas White is also an assistant coach at WKU. He coached at Tulane and spent eight years heading up the Louisiana Dynasty AAU program. He played at St. Augustine High School in New Orleans.
That whole staff is loaded with coaches with Louisiana/Southeast ties.
And don't forget, WKU is a traditional power in college basketball with a rabid fanbase. WKU has 42 regular season college basketball titles and 43 20-win seasons.
People care about basketball there. It's not like LSU, where people are wondering who the backup catcher is going to be in baseball season.
Hoops is No. 1, and it's not close.

Rick Stansbury. He's as sleepy as Hugh Freeze.
