Many players are discovered by college coaches and recruiters while watching teammates and opponents. I was the beneficiary of letters of interest based on the seniors being recruited the season prior. The cycle continues especially when good programs produce good football players consistently. It's also no accident the more competitive conferences get a lot more looks.

I also know many college programs will canvass all conference, city, region, and state teams. Especially if they have a history of success recruiting those areas. Good recruiters and college coaches also maintain good lines of communication with the high school coaches who consistently have success.

Having played division 3 football I couldn't agree with you more Duck. Although speed, strength and size can be measured, heart and will power cannot.
