Today’s NCAA Football Signing Day is well underway. Dating back to post-World War II when soldiers returning home from war were recruited by universities to play football - over the years Signing Day has become quite an American sports tradition. From the Bayou Bash to the FSU War Party, college football fans across the country are dialed in to see what the future looks like for their favorite team.
This National Signing Day will be different from years past. High-tech recruiting advancements have shortened the time it takes for college recruiters to evaluate high school prospects. At the forefront of this shift to high-tech recruiting are websites like Hudl.com that use the same video technology that powers sites like YouTube, Hulu, and Netflix. Just as you would stream last night’s episode of Lost, coaches can use Hudl to stream last night’s game to players and recruiters.
Check out today’s Silicon Prairie News to learn how Hudl has played an incremental role in today’s NCAA Signing Day and is helping players quickly get scholarship offers from top college programs.
