Why Barry Switzer’s ace recruiter took a sportswriter on a 1985 recruiting trip
The Berry Tramel Show: Barry Switzer’s ace recruiter, Scott Hill, says he took me on a memorable recruiting trip in 1985 because he thought "the players would like it.”
On the latest episode of The Berry Tramel Show, I’m joined by Scott Hill, ace recruiter from the Barry Switzer glory days of the 1980s. In 1985, I joined Scott on a four-day Trans-America trip in which he visited a variety of recruits, including at least one future Sooner star. Scott and I recollect that trip and discuss the many changes in college football recruiting. Among Scott Hill’s observations:
*How coach-media relationships were different in 1985.
*Why he took me on a cross-country recruiting trip.
*What made Scott Hill a good recruiter.
*Why he knew OU would get Jamelle Holieway
