Use the athletics website recruiting form when direct email is not listed. Follow up every one to two weeks with meaningful updates — new film, improved stats, or schedule changes — rather than generic check-ins.
Walk-on opportunities may be limited for Men's Football. Walk-on opportunities often available — reach out to the recruiting coordinator. Walk-on status does not mean unpaid enrollment — many walk-ons receive academic or need-based aid while competing for roster time.
