I read that this afternoon and thought of how this article would positively affect the decision making process of an 18 year old talent. The rich get richer. RTR

As much as performing well on the football field is a priority, so are moments such as these when hordes of scouts, coaches and general managers are watching and analyzing a player's every move on and off the field. Playing the game of football is one thing. Playing the business of football is another. It's about more than height and weight, 40-yard dash times and total tackles. It's about one-on-one interviews, chalk talk and answering questions that range from the uncomfortably intimate to the insanely irrelevant.

Excellent and timely post.  If allowed, I hope coaches will email a link to this to every recruit.
