There are a few "school reputation" factors in the signing decisions (in addition to non-reputation things like roster spot competition from the team's current players and recruits):

-geographical location relative to the player (same state, or a bigger bonus if player is from the same city)
-academic reputation (team data) page (only applies to the smarter players, i.e. high INT on the draft screen)
-tuition cost (higher ones provide a bonus to recruiting chances if a full scholarship is offered, or a smaller one for partial)
-check the "Market" tab on the League-League Finances screen and sort by Market Size (used as a proxy for overall program reputation in some player decisions),
-current season record
-past season record
-recent championships
Thanks for the clarity, adding these particular bits of information (great to know which in game screens show the info like the market tab and team data) to the manual would be super useful!
