Crafting a Winning Highlight Tape for College Coaches
Quarterbacks at 7A programs like Collins Hill Eagles, take note: your highlight tape is often the first impression you make on college coaches. To stand out, focus on showcasing your decision-making and accuracy. Structure your tape with a clear narrative, dividing it into sections that highlight your strengths. For example, dedicate a section to your ability to read defenses and make pre-snap adjustments, featuring 3-5 plays that demonstrate your understanding of coverage schemes. Use metrics to back up your claims: aim for a 70% completion rate in your highlight tape, with a minimum of 10 completions. Use slow-motion replays to emphasize your accuracy and arm strength. Finally, keep your tape concise, under 5 minutes, and make sure it's easily accessible online.
