[QUOTE="jacketup, post: 791866, member: 630"] It's easier to win big, recruit big, repeat on the west coast because there is relatively less competition for recruits than in the east. John Wooden showed that---but it was even easier at that time because he could virtually guarantee recruits they would play in the Final 4 due to the smaller number of teams in the NCAA tourney and the regional setup at that time. The ACC only got one entrant, and you had to run the gauntlet of the ACC tournament, whereas UCLA had no real PAC 8 competition. Being a west coast mid-major like Gonzaga could be an advantage if you can get the win big thing going. Again, that's easier in the West Coast Conference than in the ACC. [/QUOTE]
