Interesting info on recruiting from assistant coaches.
A couple of quotes that stood out...
Pac-12 coach: That was my life at (my previous job). Our head coach was awful at recruiting. Thought it was beneath him … and (thought) that he walked in and was the closer. When the head coach is involved and you’re recruiting against that and you don’t have your head coach involved, it’s a bitch.
Big Ten coach: Mudia Reuben (uncommitted), a wide receiver from Missouri. Reuben is a late bloomer. Played soccer until last year. Untapped.

What’s the biggest difference between a recruitment where a head coach is actively involved and one where it’s mostly handled by an assistant and a staffer?
