Win games and show that
ISU can be a legitimate contender in the Big 12. Get to post season play so that HB will be comfortable that he will get adequate exposure to improve his stock as he looks to the NBA (I'm assuming if HB is as good as everybody says he is, he will have aspirations to play in the NBA).
Stop the player turnover (transfer to other schools) so that HB sees stability in the program. Kids leaving for the NBA could be used as a positive recruiting tool. Kids transferring to other schools...not so much...

Perhaps
GMac as an individual has little effect on HB (and I really don't believe that either). But what
GMac does with the team on the floor will have a significant effect on what HB does. It's unlikely that anybody with as many good choices as HB purportedly has will choose to play with a team that looks to be a loser and shows no promise of improving.
I'm sorry...saying that the head coach of a Div I
MBB team has little effect on what recruits come to the school just seems to lack grounding in reality...
