RECRUITING YOURSELF? Topic

Anyone come across a recruit that had the same full name and you knew he had to be on your team? Any success stories? Furthermore, has anyone reached out to WIS in the past asking to be added to GD as a recruit?

Apologies for the boring topic it’s a slow snowy day here in New York.

I admit I have looked through the names, but haven’t found mine. I have found some names of other people I know and thought about recruiting them just for that reason. I never actually recruited them because their ratings were too low. If I ever find a good recruit with my name or a friend’s name I will definitely try to sign him.

I recruited a QB with my Fathers name. William Baird. This was quite a long time ago but he still holds a record of 73 - 76 passes for TDs In WILK.

He was a JR and went pro his SR season. Really screwed my season the next season. So glad that they took out the going pro early rule.

So I’m currently coaching my alma-mater and less 20 miles away from the school is a recruit with the same exact name as me. Unfortunately he is not rated very high, waiting to see his potential

I have a qb at Sam Houston I changed to my name, he had the same name as a qb I already had. Not sure if this counts.

Not my name or anyone I know, but when I was rebuilding Williams. I recruited a good OL named William Williams

Yes, if two players on your roster have the same name they'll let you change one if you send in a ticket. My first ever national championship was at D1AA Stony Brook where my star RB was Lightning McQueen. To this day I feel like that name change alone propelled me to the title.

Hahaha that is great. I just found out, not only is the guy with the same name as me interested in going to my college alma mater but according to WIS he went to my high school too. I have to land this guy
