Today I had my mid-term presentation which I felt went pretty well. I was very pleased that my classmates were attentive and seemed genuinely interested in my project. This week is the first real week of working. So far this week I have written four articles about different recruiting classes for my top twenty-five list. The articles are fairly short, but they provide a brief introduction and then a look at each of the recruits. I think the articles are a nice length because they are long enough to have substance and value, but not long to the point where people become very board. They are quick reads that provide readers with the necessary information. Along with the articles I have also prepared questions that I will ask a college coach that we interview. So far we are looking at interviewing the Chattanooga assistant coach, Farleigh Dickinson head coach, Coach Johnson, and at least one athlete. The questions that I have designed are more towards a college coach because I ask about campus visits, signings and things like that. Ben is designing questions to ask Coach Johnson. I am hoping to conduct an interview within the next week and write an article about it as soon as possible. By next week the website should be going very strong. Just in case you want to check out the website and read a little here is the link to the site.
