Title: Give Dawson Some Love
Post by: withoutbias on November 08, 2019, 12:49:29 PM
The biggest thing Dawson seems to like about Indiana is all the attention their fan base has given him.  He shares all the stories IU fans post on Instagram about him being at IU (and does the same for the other schools like Memphis and Minnesota, it just happens less from those fans), shares Tweets from other fan bases, etc.  Let's show this kid some love.  To me this is the biggest swing recruit in the Wojo era.  If we land him I think this program can take off.  If we don't I think we stay at the level we've been seeing the last few years.  If we land Garcia I think we'll have a real shot at Brown for 2021 and Mane for 2020.  And if we land those two look out.

Not saying be a creep and try to hunt him out based on where he's Tweeting from, but I'm guessing he'll share some Instagram pictures in a Marquette uniform (he's done so with the other 3 finalists).  Put those in your stories and let him know he's wanted here.  He seems to genuinely enjoy that kind of love and hopefully Marquette fans can make an impression on him this weekend.

I do not know who Garcia is going pick, but the 2 cities are totally different.  Does he want a big city atmosphere that just so happens has the
best player in the NBA to watch and play in the best new arena in the country,  practice in the summer with or a college town like Bloomington that would be a 12 hour drive for his parents
to watch him?  Easy 5 hour drive from Minneapolis to watch him. There are differences that is for sure.

I'll like a tweet or post, but honestly, if I'm the staff, I'm using the lesser interaction as a selling point. Yes, it’s nice to feel loved during recruiting and when you win, but what happens when you leave or lose? Those same fans that fill your mentions now will increase that tenfold with abuse.

Yes, there were some distasteful public comments when the Hausers left, but I would consider the general social media restraint by Marquette fans to be a point of pride, especially compared to how one other local school in particular responds when recruits pick another school (Herro is still getting abuse from Badger fans).

Social media love is fickle. We don't have Indiana's fanbase, and no matter what people say about Scoop, I'm convinced we're also far less creepy.

Is it illegal for Wojo to get a server farm in China to create a few thousand fake accounts to flood his social media with love?

Dearest Dawson,

I am writing this affirmation to you in order to let you know I would greatly appreciate it if you brought your talents to Marquette University, located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It would be, as the kids say, "dope," if you were to make the most honorable decision to matriculate at Marquette University. I would greatly cheer you on at the basketball contests and onto victory.

Dear Mr. Garcia:

Let's work out a good deal! You don't want to be responsible for slaughtering the wet dreams of thousands of Marquette fans, and I don't want to be responsible for leaking that I cooled on you — and I will. I've already given you a little sample with respect to Quentin Grimes.

I have worked hard to solve some of your problems. Don't let Milwaukee down. You can make a great deal. Our boosters are willing to negotiate with you, and he is willing to make concessions that they would never have made in the past. I am confidentially enclosing a copy of his letter to me, just received.

History will look upon you favorably if you get this done the right and expedient way. It will look upon you forever as the devil if good things don't happen. Don't be a tough guy. Don't be a fool!

I will call you later.

Sincerely,
Coach Wojo

Has a recruit ever really chosen a school based on their social media "fans"? From what I've seen, it's just a bunch of lame dorks posting on his stuff. If that truly is the difference maker then so be it.

Garcia saw peak Fiserv when MU took down Villanova in a thriller last year so I'm sure he is aware MU has a passionate fan base. Additionally, MU averaged 15,611 fans vs IU's 15,206 last year in very similarly sized arenas.

Not saying be a creep and try to hunt him out based on where he's Tweeting from, but I'm guessing he'll share some Instagram pictures in a Marquette uniform (he's done so with the other 3 finalists).  Put those in your stories and let him know he's wanted here.  He seems to genuinely enjoy that kind of love and hopefully Marquette fans can make an impression on him this weekend.

I have been DM'ing Dawson pics of me in my Marquette gear every night, and the following mornings after I wake up in said outfit. Except that one Monday when I was running late for work, and you know, priorities. But so far so good, to the point where I think this might even move the needle.

I have also liked every single one of his tweets, Facebook posts, and his Myspace postings from Pre-K. Not to be out done, if you notice I have also left "You are Golden" comments under each of his Instagram posts with the sunglasses emoji. I would like to see Indiana fans try a little harder. I am running circles around them.
