BarnHorn Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Love all the prospect interviews (or interrogations 😉) that Gerry does on the road. It got me thinking about a contest like this for folks in the business. Basic part of the contest is that you get points for interviewing prospects in person at their high school. Not on zoom, not at a camp... Can only earn points once per player, not every time you interview. Points are tied to final consensus ranking.  And in the simplest system it is 3, 4 or 5 points as it relates to stars. @Gerry Hamilton - How many points you got and is that first place?  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Simmons (national) for sure digs out the info on the road. Scott Schrader (USC coverage) gets out a lot. Ryan Brauninger at Texags hits the road a lot too. EJ Holland (covers Michigan) gets out a lot too. Those are the guys that come to mind as far as grinding to get the info on the road. A lot of fakers in this industry, being very honest. Social media makes it easy to fool fan bases. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
