This episode explores a June 2016 article by Chris Vannini. In this article, Ohio State Head Coach Urban Myer is quoted, “I don’t care what you do at a camp. I care what your high school football coach says.” This is a short article that happens to be very compelling. You’ll find the link to the original article below.

There is a video within the article. It’s grainy but if you listen, Coach Myer drops some valuable words of wisdom. Here are some of the takeaways from the article and video:

• Become captain of your high school team
• Master the art of discipline
• Strategically use camps as a tune-up
• Be reliable
• Be the best player on your team
• When things get hard, you get better
• Be a multi-sport athlete

One thing you should know about college recruiters, they never come in and say “I’m looking for an idiot or a pain in the ass.”
