The Columbia Football coaching staff is doing something really interesting today by sending its recruiters to just about as many high schools with football programs in the New York metropolitan area that they can in one day in what they're calling the "Empire Rush."
You can pretty much follow their progress in real time by checking the CU Football Twitter/X feed every hour or so.
I think this is a great way to raise the local awareness of the program and hopefully snag an athlete or two that we may have overlooked otherwise.
It feels like the times when Columbia has tried some innovative recruiting techniques, it's paid off well for the program.
Let's see how this turns out.

Certainly save on recruiting travel expenses.
Thanks for the link, Jake. The staff really covered a lot of territory. Really impressive grassroots effort.
