Recruiting Videos

This may be old news to you, but it's news to me. Somehow I missed the fact that there are video clips of Dartmouth's early decision recruits available on the football website. In case you missed them, here are links to the roughly one-minute highlight videos that have been posted:

Austen Fletcher 6-2, 285 OL
Grant Palmer 6-5, 250 OL
Pat Lahey 6-3, 285 OL/DL
Zach Wodka 6-3, 265 OL
Mark Dwyer 6-4, 240 TE/DT
Alex Shulman 6-2, 205 TE
Mike Riley 6-1, 190 WR
Brad Dornak 6-0, 180 WR
Conner Kempe 6-4, 200 QB
Connor Phillips 6-4, 235 DE
JB Andreassi 5-11, 185 DB
Foley Schmidt 5-10, 180 kicker

Note: The links above are early-decision recruits only. The college hasn't yet announced the regular class, but look for that announcement and I would anticipate videos of those incoming players in the next few weeks.

In the interim, I stumbled across a YouTube highlight video of another possible (but unconfirmed) recruit, 5-10, 190 running back Chris Crockett of Ohio's Columbus Academy. Find a mention of him and Dartmouth here and his video here. The video reports he ran for 1,950 yards as a junior, averaged 10.2 yards per carry and scored 37 touchdowns. He was injured as a senior (story). He's also a talented point guard in basketball and received basketball recruiting interest from some major college programs. A Columbus Dispatch story from his junior year notes his interest in both sports.
