Mike London Recruits Via LinkedIn

I knew Virginia is a school with demanding academic standards, but I sure didn’t realize its 16-year-old football recruits are out here getting their e-resume on with fellow professionals. From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s latest coach roundup, here’s Mike London:

↵“I’m on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and you name it. We’re Skyping and doing all those things. If it’s allowable by the NCAA, then you can use every Social Network means necessary to get your messages across ... You will find out more about guys on Facebook and Twitter sometimes than you will having a 10-minute conversation with them because a lot of times they will let their guard down and show a side maybe you haven’t thought about before. Social Media networks are now something that are very prevalent in recruiting.”
