A blessing and a curse, for sure.
I love the fact that we try (and are often successful) at going wherever we want in order to find players. It makes the ceiling for our classes very high in any given year because we will not be affected (as much) by a "down" year in a specific area. That being said, we lack the safety net other programs enjoy and it requires extra effort by the staff. The highs are high but the lows can be low, and there isn't much room for error.
