College coaches working to learn NIL impact on recruiting
“If I’m a quarterback who’s looking at the SEC, ACC schools, big schools, that might be a big thing,” Boston College graduate offensive lineman Zion Johnson said. Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald offered his own blunt assessment, which seemed like a practice run at debunking any NIL-based recruiting pitches by competitors. “‘We’ve got the greatest NIL.’ They’re all full of it. At least in the ACC, multiple coaches weren’t ready to commit to major changes to their recruiting approach with NIL. Boston College coach Jeff Hafley figures he will use it as part of the pitch for a school in a major media market.
