The Godfather of Recruiting
Mike Farrell has been in football recruiting since the mid 1990s. He was the national recruiting director at Rivals.com for over two decades, has appeared on ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNews, Sportscenter and was the first recruiting analyst featured on College Gameday. He’s also been on NBC, CBS, ABC and numerous cable outlets. He’s been on air for live commitments for prospects like Percy Harvin and Tim Tebow.
Farrell was on the selection committee for the US Army All American Bowl and the Under Armour All American Game. He’s been involved in every aspect of college football recruiting from scouting to camp creation to consulting with colleges and so on.
For more 30 years, he’s been the biggest name in college football recruiting and deemed the Godfather of Recruiting since 2000.
No one understands every nuance of college football recruiting better and no one knows the strategies and psychology of recruiting exposure better. No one can you your son more attention from coaches, no one.
Having dealt with hundreds of coaches in his career and with more than 2,000 college coaches following, his reach is unsurpassed.
Thinking of hiring someone to help your son gain exposure to coaches? Research first. Find out who they are and who knows them. You’ll come to one conclusion — there is no bigger name to help you.
Push your film out again and again to hundreds of thousands of followers.
Across all of our platforms and most importantly to more than 2,000 college football coaches. Every college from D3 all the way to the Power Four has someone following me and they could notice your film.
