As someone who's quite familiar with at least 3 of the 11 Big Ten schools, I'd say recs would only help. Legacy status can get a little tricky, usually for the schools where a HUGE number of women from the same hometowns and families will go to the same school -Illinois, Minnesota, maybe Purdue and Wisconsin. Being a legacy wouldn't necessarily hurt your chances at your legacy chapter, but, as sometimes happens, non-legacy orgs might assume you're going to your legacy chapter, and act differently, so if you lost your legacy house, you'd have the chance of being cross-cut.
Again, this doesn't happen that often in the Big 10 schools (that I know of). And if recs were written, the orgs felt the fit was not right for them.
