The Recruiting Wire 4.25
April 25th, 2008 - byI wanted to share a couple of great videos that really show how a college coach approaches the recruiting process. Scott Ruggles was assistant defensive line coach for Harvard University in 2006, when the team defense ranked first in the Ivy League and led the nation in sacks. He has also been offensive line and tight ends coach for University of Missouri-Rolla and quarterbacks coach for Central Connecticut State University. A lot of the themes he hits on are staples of what NCSA stands for: Great character, the importance of academics, the importance of an in-person meeting, and the persistence required to be successful. Recruits need to do everything they can to make sure they display these qualities to a coach.
