Today was the day before the Skyhawks take on their Ohio Valley Conference rival Tennessee Tech University. I, again, was working with Coach Hankins in recruiting. Today was particularly fun because I had to research the recruits and their offers that have been made to them or if they have at this point committed to a school to play football, or in some cases, baseball. I used the ESPN websites, 247 Sports website, and the players Twitter accounts to see if they have been offered or committed to a school at this point in time. This is so that if they have an offer from a school in the Skyhawks conference, they can make contact with them and talk to them to see where they are in terms of committing. If there’s a player both schools are interested in, knowing a rival sort of lights a fire under the coaches to get their guy to commit over their conference rival. I was able to find the higher ranked guys pretty easily on ESPN and 247 Sports, but I had to dig on some players’ Twitter accounts in order to find out if they have been offered. It was rather time consuming, but a lot of the guys had tweeted their offers or commits had they had either. Next week when I go back, I will continue what I have been doing the last few visits in order to wrap up all of his recruits.
