This week's guest is both a dear friend and respected mentor that I have looked up to ever since we met; I was just a young college student, hungry to learn how to scout like the pros! Years later, it's an absolute honor and privilege to have him on my show!

In Episode 13, John breaks down a multitude of factors involved in the recruiting game. When it comes down to what it takes to recruit at a high level, it's pretty simple: you have to be able to communicate effectively and connect! We discuss the fundamental phases of recruiting, what recruiters must be knowledgeable of, and the incredible experiences that have shaped John's distinguished and successful football career. Whether you're new to the recruiting game or a veteran, there's so much to learn from this episode!

As always, here is your listener's guide:
