Default If you were the top recruit, where would you go?

If you were the top college recruit for the 4 major sports, what school would you go to and why?
My picks:

Football: USC: Best exposure, and get to live in Southern California
Basketball: UCLA: Great tradition, and I hate Duke/UNC
Baseball: Rice: Awesome program, awesome school.
Hockey: Maine: Hockey and lobster, together at last...

lord no. Harvard, a solid program where you can get a top degree. or BC, which is a good school and is a lot of fun. or Michigan, which is a combo of all of the above.

football: Michigan or possibly now Notre Dame. maybe Stanford a few years ago

basketball: tons of great choices here. UNC, Duke, UCLA would be 3 top choices.

I'm pretty sure the correct answer is Lobster U.

I have no idea why any top pitcher would go to Rice given their track record of abusing pitching prospects.

Rice doesn't necessarily give you greater exposure in the baseball world. You can go to a school that actually runs their program reasonably well and probably do better on the exposure front, such as Arizona State University.

Rice pitchers are all but guaranteed to get shoulder/elbow surgery within 2 years of graduation.
