Yea I agree, I was taught at the college level. So I evaluated and recruited players from the HS to the D1 College ranks so I’ve never been in an NFL arena but I do know quite a few people at the Division 1 &2 levels as well as a couple of NFL scouts and a handful of personnel people at the college level but sometimes you have to be careful talking to college coaches cause they’ll inflate their own guys 

I've been a scout on the road for the high school circuit the last 9 years

 

I'll be at the elite 11 east coast camp next month in Ohio

 

Do you still do the circuit?

Nah man I’ve been out of the game for a bit now. My wife makes way too much money to be moving her around the country with the turnover in college ball for not great pay and long hours in the office away from the family. Still love watching tape though and obviously giving my opinions haha

Yup I actually was long distance from my wife for a couple years but I’m near 40 and this was when I was 30-35 and I wanted to have a child so I took the regular man’s job and let her be the bread winner which I have zero shame in

Yea I hear you 

 

I'm going to watch a few guys but Matt Ponatoski is a rising QB from the East Coast starting to get high major buzz and he's still undecided but he has a live arm

 

 and I think Pennsylvania Ohio area is a really underrated area for football players 

 

Doesn't get the love it could

 

Obviously Texas Florida Georgia California are the Kings... But Louisiana , DMV area, Carolinas and Ohio Pennsylvania have a lot of great talent..  then add Alabama, Mississippi

 

The amount of high school football talent in this country is insane

I was in Western PA for a couple of years. Scouted the WPIAL especially really hard but all of PA, NY, NJ, MD was an area for me and I agree that those states have a lot of football talent
