ZachTheZip Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/recruiting/...tory?id=5345790 "Facebook.com is today," said first-year Akron coach Rob Ianello, whose previous job was Notre Dame recruiting coordinator, assistant coach for offense and receivers coach. "It's not a new thing, but it's a new thing in the recruiting world. You can really communicate with kids quickly. Kids have it on their phones and coaches have it on their phones, and you can communicate with them on a consistent basis." Forget the archaic methods of texting recruits or (gasp) simply e-mailing them. A routine personal Web page becomes an interactive hub for instant messages and e-mails between coach and prospect. Now it makes sense. Ianello is so technologically advanced in the age of Facebook that texting was too ancient a mode of communication for him to master.

Dr Z Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 I would guess it's the grad assistants making contact on facebook and not iCoach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
