[QUOTE="jgtengineer, post: 811540, member: 3094"] The internet and reach has TRULY changed the game more than anything else. For instance even when I was going to highschool getting tape to schools was a matter of cutting up actual tape copies for highlights, digital camera's existed but unless you had a richer school most game film was in color on vhs recorders (we even did a few black and white film studies) And this was just in the early 2000s. Rivals and scout etc were just becoming a thing. Once that happens now suddenly everyone has a extended recruiting, everyones parents are sitting in the crowd recording to make highlight tapes. Its easier, you can teach a sports film elective and have 30 kids doing highlight videos. So now your primary recruiters job is to sit there and go through the recruiting sites, flag the candidates you want to take a further look and and take a look it doesn't matter where they are. What this means is that now the rich get much much richer, anyone who is a hidden gym isn't for long. Think about how many times CPJ's staff would offer a kid then after they had an offer from us suddenly they got offers lots of places. Now it wasn't because the kid wasn't deserving of those offers. But it does mean that the CPJ method of finding talent worked, even if we didn't land it. Honestly this is what Collins excelled at too once upon a time. Him and Smith. Now he's playing the current recruiting game by basically making tech a social media event which is great and will target kid sint eh social media age. But in the end we are still competing very very different than how things were even at the beginning of chans time with us. Much less how it was int eh 70s and 80s. [/QUOTE]
