Notes Twitter. Flickr. Film: Senior Highlights: Hudl. Junior year scrimmage. Imagine you were challenged to create the ultimate under-the-radar recruit. Rules are he has to be a recruit who gets the bare minimum coverage from the four sites, but also seem like a guy over 50-percent likely to eventually start for a contender. If we're to engineer this correctly we have to start with some factors that often get players overlooked: Has to grow up away from football, preferably in another country or a part of America (like Connecticut) where scouts don't want to waste their time. Competition level has to be low so his tape can't be taken seriously. Stays away from all camps. Private workouts only. Projects to a position he's not playing now. Make him an offensive lineman, since those are the hardest to rank out of high school. Can't be close to playing size. Have him be a good 30-40 pounds under college weight, and a late growth spurt so what's circulating from roster data is years outdated. Recruitment has to go quickly; no more than one school should have time to take more than a passing glance. Be on the board as little time as possible. Big offers should be kept quiet. Preferably no social media, but if so no edits except from where he commits and schools that often recruit well outside the top-1000 like Connecticut or Michigan State. No official visits, and bunch the unofficial ones into a single trip announced at the last minute so recruiting reporters don't get wind. Minimal relevant football played. Stay out of America as long as possible. Pandemic- or injury-canceled seasons. No drama after he commits—guy has to be so about the place he's going nobody looks at him again. Alessandro Lorenzetti is going to be hard to beat. He got a huge head start by starting his life Montreal, transferring to Connecticut in time to see his junior season canceled by the pandemic, then had his senior year asterisked by playing through a shoulder injury. He was discovered by Michigan only because he was intercepted for a workout on his way to Michigan State. It wasn't a perfect run; Penn State got involved, the SEC was poking around, and a workout at Ohio State was in the works at one point. He also slipped and put out some pretty good senior tape, though fortunately that didn't cost him since he was literally the first player in Michigan's class to get his LOI sent in. Jake Moody still owns the Michigan Any% record for managing to slip into his class as a scholarship player without anyone taking him for more than a walk-on until he was literally on the field, but Lorenzetti's record for least scouting on a position player might stand for a long time.
