8/17 How Recruiting Works with Yale's Andy Shay

Yale head coach Andy Shay joins for the fourth installment of this month's series in which IL's Terry Foy tries to answer question, "How does recruiting work?"

As opposed to the "How do you evaluate?" and "How do you communicate?" formats that Foy used with Navy's Joe Amplo, Ohio State's Nick Myers and Virginia's Lars Tiffany, Foy starts by asking Shay how his recruiting has evolved since he arrived in New Haven ahead of the 2004 season. They move through culture-building, admissions standards, emphasizing athletic potential and handling success. They end with how the Yale staff is approaching the Class of 2025; the role that highlight videos and athlete outreach plays, how they build their list and much more.
