How much love and affection do you think players have before they go to college? 99% of these kids didn’t grow up fans. They all went where they went for one reason or another. I don’t know why you think it’s relevant that Simmons chose LSU for the reason he did. People are down voting you because it’s not a good point, not because what you said was inaccurate
You think Kentucky players go there because of their love and affection for Kentucky? Or do you think there’s another reason?

Why do kids go to Kentucky? Coach Cal is a big part of it, of course, but UK's tradition and championships are another big reason.
So although recruits may not have "love and affection" for UK, the tradition and quality of the UK program is a big driver.
So the school matters. That's really all I meant. And LSU didn't matter at all to Simmons, he just followed his godfather, played (indifferently, IMO) and left town the instant he could.
