Found this amazing nugget about Prov, which is somewhat related to the OP:

How high has Cooley raised the bar in Providence? Look no further than the rankings. The Recruiting Services Consensus Index (RSCI) creates their top 100 rankings by aggregating the rankings of all the major recruiting publications. Over a 13-year span, from 1998-2010, Providence had four recruits ranked in the RSCI’s top 100 players (Gerald Brown and Dwight Brewington in 2003, DeSean White in 2004 and Gerard Coleman in 2010)....Including the transfers, in just over two years, Cooley has doubled the number of top 100 players that committed to the program from 1998-2010.

I guess the league change worked well for recruiting All-Americans too:

"Doug McDermott says switch to Big East was a factor in his return: "I just needed a change." #BigEastMBB"

Chris Mack quote:

And coach Chris Mack believes his program will grow even stronger now. "The exposure that Xavier is going to gain is gonna be tremendous," Mack said. "We feel like for so many years we’ve played at such a high level. We’ve chartered every flight, we’ve had multiple guys go on to the NBA, we’ve been in four of the last six Sweet Sixteens. We’ve done it at such a high level, but conference affiliation, especially in recruiting -- it’s like your front porch. If you can’t get a person on your front porch, you can’t get him in your house."
