How to excite recruits

[AngryOtto]

With covid I am sure it is very difficult to get recruits excited in a program. Everything is done over the computer. No camps or official visits.
I was thinking what could the staff do that would not violate ncaa rules.
One thing I thought may excite the recruit is to live stream practice. Could give recruits a pass code to enter for each practice. That would keep things private and not release information but also allow the recruits to really see the players and coaches engaged in football activities. Just a thought.
Anyone else have any rule appropriate suggestions that could help recruiting (beside facility upgrades)?

Once you start sending out passcodes, there's no way to keep it private.

You would send a new one each practice. Also only to recruits that have real interest in su versus an offer.

The Pitino/Louisville approach seems like it probably excited a lot of recruits, unfortunately I'm not sure that is the path we should be taking.

I wish I had a serious answer. I'm not sure how we can do that right now. Hopefully the virtual tours they are getting and the coaches energy/enthusiasm is enough of a draw to bring them to Syracuse.

How do you know that they aren't letting them view practice. They give live virtual tours.

Clemson and Bama use the hottest girls in school. Seems to work for them.

If you have news please share.

I honestly think this is what most schools do

We've been doing better recruiting now than we have in the last 10 years when it comes to getting early commits. Those early commits are excited in the program. I think our guys know what they are doing.

Syracuse football is one of the only schools in the country to use this robot to aid recruiting efforts

Little did Dino Babers know at the time, but Syracuse football's utilization of an innovative recruiting tool can be traced back to the words of a septuagenarian.

I go out once a month as Nancy. And that is none of your business

The title of this thread belongs on a Louisville basketball forum

But are they all team captains?

I suggest we employ the ole Rick Pitino special and take them down to Paradise on the Boulevard and whatever happens happens

Seriously though, winning and great facilities with a chance to take your talent to the next level excites players. Until we establish ourselves as a winning program we will not excite the same number or level of recruits as the top programs. My first High School coach taught me that winning solves all problems.
