Around this time every year, dozens of parents of high school prospects ask IL's Terry Foy some version of the question, "How does recruiting work?"

In an effort to round out that answer, he's interviewing a series of DI men's lacrosse coaches about their process, starting year three with Duke head coach John Danowski.

Post to Hofstra and now to Duke, where he and his staff routinely rack up No. 1 recruiting classes. How does he do it? And how has it evolved. All that and more.
