Interesting that they use Under Armour as a selling point.

I was hoping the answer would be money/cash/hoes (or substitute point shaving for any of those)

Very well done.  Love how competitive MAC football is becoming.

Ohio should just make a video that says "We're not in Toledo." 

Common sense seems to think that should sway enough kids.

Better than nothing I suppose...shows their facilities and that the program has a history of winning (all good things).  I thought the video itself was kind of boring.

I agree.  Just the normal post-game video recap with Russ yelling on big plays is more exciting than this.

I'm calling shenanigans. Toledo does not have sunny days, and there were at least 2 flyover shots where the sun was shining.

Very well done video.  I think we could do one just as good though.  Two thoughts:

1)  I wonder if they purposely missed "second fiddle to Northern Illinois" on purpose.  (This is a joke.)

2)  After watching it, I can't wait to see how our IPF will boost recruiting.

Not bad.

But we can do better.

Start with adding crowd noise and words from players, fan, coaches, Dr. McDavis, etc.



A video without spoke words.  Kinda weird.

I actually like that approach.  Add crowd shots and noise, but leave it as your hook.  Have the recruiters e care of the words.

Yeah...but what about when recruiters are not involved in the process...when a kid finds the video on his own.

Spoken words--from players, coaches, fans, students, parents, administrators, teachers--can add impact.
