Recruiting Hostesses
For many years, this was a crucial job in the well-oiled machine of recruiting. These young ladies put out... fires whenever a recruit might be feeling homesick. They got a leg up... on the competition by showing recruits the very best parts...of campus culture. They were prepared to go all the way... to the end of the recruiting weekend having given everything they had to secure a commitment. Some of them took it very hard... if a young man they hosted chose to sign elsewhere.
Gone are the days of a more personal touch from the hostesses helping the recruit become more intimately familiar with the university.
Nowadays, teams just throw a bunch of NIL money at recruits and expect them to find their own good times.
So when you think of the Lacey Pearl Earps of the world who no longer matter as much as they once did - well, tonight thank God it's them, instead of you.
