I think an understated factor of RI is that the players were shown HvV in sequester, and that season basically serve as propaganda that Rob is a good and loyal guy who should be aligned with and Russell is an evil and ruthless gameplayer who you shouldn't trust at all. I think that if anything else created a scenario where a bunch of young and dumb recruits flocked to Rob and listened to his every word.
