In response to CM
That's not how it works - getting outright denied admissions. The Ivy basketball world is tiny, nothing is secret. The fact is Dartmouth MBB doesn't even bother recruiting certain players - either because their AAU/HS coach tells Dartmouth coaches not to bother or the coaches themselves know not to bother. The coaches know ahead of time, based on their history of recruiting, which kids can and cannot expect to get help from admissions.
Whether or not kids want to come to Hanover is an entirely separate issue from admissions.
But I got to push back on this. Dartmouth football's recruiting has been excellent since roughly 2010. We routinely get 10-15 guys a year who have offers from FBS (sometimes BCS) schools. This current year could be the best yet.
If there is a reason why Dartmouth admissions is working well with football, but giving MBB a hard time... I can't come up with it.
