Recruits engagement with team on gameday

[VOLanooga]

When we have recruits on campus on gameday do they do everything with the team, meaning they are in the locker room pre-game, halftime and post-game or do they just sit in the stands and watch the game like the rest of us?

Postgame sometimes. Pre and during, usually not with the team but being shown around, wined and dined and whatnot. Theyll watch the game but sometimes leave for planned events by the hosting staff. Kind of depends.

I doubt they get in there halftime. But wasn’t that video of Dools beating “$%* out of Vandy” comment recorded by a recruit?

if you are on an official visit you get access to pregame festivities on the field during warmups and in the locker room..halftime meal with family or coaches that you came with. And post game locker room access while the parents or guardian waiting with the current players parents in a designated area inside the stadium. Also they have team escort sit with them as kind of a chaperone and talk about the school and “pitch” Tennessee. They are sitting in the bottom left corner of the end zone you will see our boys run towards them to celebrate TDs often, you can usually pick them out because a lot of them are in regular street attire. Hope that helps!

The USCe game is perfect example. When the crowd started going nuts in the 3rd quarter, the camera kept panning to the recruits. Jalin Hyatt was shown multiple times.

Great info! Thanks

No prob! Also let me preface what I said with I’m sure things change from coaching staff to coaching staff, this was what it was like during the Kiffin era when my brother had an OV. But I’m assuming all major programs keep it’s relatively the same. We were in the locker room post UCLA loss...it was an experience I’ll never forget seeing the passion up close after that tough game.
