There is an interesting article on recruiting during the stay at home period.

Jeff Scott thinks this will help USF recruiting.

USF coach Jeff Scott pointed out a potential benefit for his program. The under-the-radar players in the Tampa area who are identified in spring ball and get one offer – setting off a domino of others – will likely stay unknown. That could give USF, and schools like it, an advantage in keeping some hidden gems local. “Some of the guys you know about in your local area may stay a little more protected, if you will,” he said.

Interesting take.

Jeff sure finds his way into these stories as a source. Great visibility for our program having a guy the media calls regularly for comment.

The difference is striking but in all fairness CCS was a simply a man before his time when it came to social distancing the media and fans.

CJS's staff is being hyper-local when it comes to recruiting Florida, with specific coaches responsible for recruiting specific groups of counties so that they have great familiarity with the HS coaches and players, and vice versa.  They are in constant contact and seem to be creating great relationships.
