How Toledo sells its program to recruits

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.

I'll tell ya where we'll go. Someplace warm. A place where the beer flows like wine. Where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano. I'm talkin' bout a little place called... ATHENS.

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.

Bleed Green and GO OHIO!!

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

Can somebody hit a pull up jumper for me?.....

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

Quality.

I've seen crazier things happen.

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.
