How Do You Recruit When Snow Cancels School?

Recruiting on the collegiate level is a difficult enough process without outside influences getting in the mix. For the past few weeks ice and snow storms have closed schools throughout the Ohio Valley, and when that's where you do most of your recruiting it can be a problem. Wednesday at the "signing day" press conference we asked the assistant coaches how the snow days effected their daily job out on the road?
Quite a few high schools were closed in the Cincinnati area on Wednesday but it had no effect on the staff at UC. What it did do was delay some of the "pageantry' that goes on at the schools when the students sign the letter in front of school officials, parents and the media.
