Coaches' Eyes on You: What OL Prospects Need to Bring to Junior Day Visits

As a top OL prospect at a 4A program like Dimond Lynx, you're likely to receive junior day invites from college coaches. But what sets you apart from the competition? Coaches look for prospects who demonstrate a strong work ethic, impressive technique, and a clear understanding of the game. Bring a highlight tape that showcases your ability to execute assignments and make blocks at the point of attack. For example, aim to average 2-3 reps per drill during position-specific stations, with a focus on technique over raw strength. Be prepared to discuss your strengths, weaknesses, and goals, and come with a list of questions to ask coaches about their program. Show, don't tell, your passion for the game and your commitment to improvement.
