What Coaches Look for on a Junior Day Visit: RB Edition

When attending a junior day visit as a running back prospect, it's essential to showcase your skills and demonstrate a strong work ethic. Coaches are looking for players who can make an immediate impact on their team. Here are some key things to focus on: Develop a highlight tape that showcases your strengths, such as speed, agility, and power. Aim for a 3-minute video that highlights your best plays. For example, if you have a 4.5 40-yard dash time, include a clip of you running a 40-yard dash at a previous camp. Additionally, be prepared to take reps on the field and demonstrate your ability to read blocks and make cuts. Show coaches you're a student of the game by asking questions and taking notes during position meetings.
