per GopherSports:
You can still find Briean Boddy-Calhoun’s high school highlight film online. Nearly 10 minutes long, the video features offensive and defensive highlights from multiple seasons, with background music and even a little slow motion. Fast forward to the fall of 2011, and find another video, almost nine minutes, of his junior college highlights.
In both cases, the star of the videos created them himself. Boddy-Calhoun spent hours uploading game footage to use with video software at Delcastle High School in Wilmington, Del. Even with a good memory for the plays he wanted to include, it still took him a few days to clip and piece together all the elements.
After his freshman season at Coffeyville Community College in Kansas, he again showcased his top football moments in the hope of moving to Division I. He took advice to start with touchdowns and interceptions, follow with pass breakups and conclude with tackling.
“Briean spent a lot of time and effort putting together his high school highlight film,” Minnesota recruiting coordinator Billy Glasscock said. “He did a great job of showcasing his best plays at the beginning of the video, which definitely catches a coach’s attention. Briean understood that showing the clips that highlighted his cover skills were just as important as his interception clips. His junior college film showcased his great ball skill and coverage ability.”
