The way the events ended up unfolding, it is a bit suspicious and worthy of an investigation.

Officials at Hamilton could have hypothetically lured the talented Bay View quartet over with the promise they'd be coached by the legendary Tom Diener. Or it's possible Diener could have contacted them himself.

What erodes those theories though would be Diener accepting the job at Grafton in between. Would he seriously go as far as seeking a job elsewhere temporarily to throw off the scent?

More likely 4 friends/teammates who all considered themselves college prospects (some more realistically than others) decided to transfer from a crappy academic school to improve their chances at a free college education and future playing meaningful games in the sport they love. Subsequently, Diener saw an opportunity to win with an immense amount of talent and seized it by following the quartet. Nothing illegal about that.

That's my "theory" unless Diener has a reputation as a sleazeball that I'm not aware of.
