As North Texas looks for a resurgence, it all begins on the recruiting trail, and that trail is comprised of much more than football and 40-yard dashes. In a rare peek into a recruiting war room, Dodge breaks down the challenges that face a coach looking to build a program and import a system.

"I'm going into my second year, and probably the biggest difference (between high school and college) is that you're so much more responsible for the college player than you are the high school player," he said. "The high school player has mom or dad. At the college level, at least half of your team is away from home and they're still 18 or 20 years old. Your assistant coach-to-player relationship is so much more crystallized."

This has material I haven't seen anywhere else. Good quotes throughout.

After reading the story, I liked Coach Dodge's concept of recruiting OL

players. Coach Dodge said, he recruits from the outside in, meaning

OT's are priority, that can become OG's. I never thought of recruiting

OL prospects in that order, but this concept makes more sense now.
