CFB Arms Race: Graphics and Media

[Hoyacane1620]

Michigan hired Ty Rogers three years ago as a multimedia coordinator to boost graphics and video presence on social media with recruits. Rogers no longer works at Michigan. He spent a few days earlier this week at Ohio State working on signing day footage and graphics .

From an OSU article about this subject:
"We asked a source in the know for a little more detail on the difference between good and bad … errr … Ohio State and the Fighting Khakis.

“It’s the culture,” the source said. “At Ohio State it’s a way of life. It goes beyond the field. It’s about kicking their **** in all areas of the program. How the sauce is made to make kids feel like [Ohio State] is a cool place to be. Competing for national championships, support the players get - everything top to bottom is what he’s referencing. What they’re doing at Michigan right now [Ohio State] was doing eight years ago. Michigan still rents movies at Blockbuster. We are streaming them.”



So much goes into having a top notch program. This is just another piece of that puzzle and we've talked about this stuff on this board before. Personally, I think the stuff that comes from Miami graphics department is pretty top notch. The video gifs this cycle were awesome.

So the program that is light years ahead hired a guy from the program they are light years ahead and now that guy is talking about them being light years ahead?

Cool story bro.

This will only be more important as the new NCAA rules roll out, kids will want to play at a program where they can get media exposure

Columbus Ohio is a bastion of exposure.

OSU as a program does get a crap ton of exposure

And even if you're mocking Columbus then wouldn't OSU investing a lot into their social media just prove how important it is?

Not interested in either............just bring what we can do to get W's........our graphics, yes. Others I could care less.

Listen man they can hire Hollywood.

Get me a coach with a ******* pulse and any kid performing well IN MIAMI immediately gets more exposure than 99% of the other teams out there.

Don't get lost in the greater point the tweet is making. It's not about the "graphics department"; it's that there is essentially a corporate organization built to support the football team. They're Walmart. Unfortunately, we're a small mom-and-pop.

So let me explain why an AD needs to be more than a ticket salesman...

That's why our beloved university is dead. We will never be "back". Those in control of the decisions that change the end results are not interested in championship football. it's a wrap!

yeah, we’ve got plenty of flash, but no substance.

So if manny hires someone to post his GIFs, we'll start winning again?? Lol

All that stuff is just icing on the cake. You need to win first before we start worrying about signing day videos. OSU, Oregon, OU, etc do those things to attract talent to their programs. We have talented players in SFL they just dont want to come here and play in this mess for these coaches. Cool GIF or not we are losing players who've spent their entire lives in Florida to Nebraska. I know i live in Canada and all but even I know anywhere in Florida is better than spending 4 years in Nebraska
