But the thing you all seem to be missing is the real reason most recruits go to a certain school. Most football players at LSU grew up as LSU fans and always dreamed of playing here. That was their primary motivation. If LSU was terrible, they might have reconsidered, but LA Tech being in a major conference would likely not affect them one way or the other.

When it comes to Blue Chip recruits, I really don't think this is as important as you think it is.
Maybe for some of them, and maybe for the lower rated recruits

I'll agree with Wiki on this. Playing time and getting to the next level is probably a bigger motivation to most recruits.
If LSU was terrible, they'd be going elsewhere, like FSU(Travis Minor) or Colorado(Kordell Stewart) back in the day.

LA Tech is a bad example. If Tulane went to a BCS Conference and raised it budget and got serious about football, it would have an effect on LSU.

I agree with Wiki too. When you're a Top 100 recruit, you're looking at the NFL. You want to go to a school that will best prepare you to do that.
Almost 30% of the 2011 recruiting class was out-of-state. Those players, and probably most of the black in-state ones, went to LSU because they want to go to the NFL. Not because of any family loyalty to LSU.
