NFL Scouting Academy

#1

Just wondering if any of you guys have taken or heard about Scouting Academy. It's an online intensive scouting academy ran by former players and scounts. I kind of want to take it and increase my football knowledge but $750 is a steep price.

Is this being offered by Trump University?

As with most things sports related, this seems like a huge money grab.

 

Just how many job openings in an NFL Scouting Dept come open every year?


I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!

Not many but combining computer skills and scouting knowledge might land you a college assistant job pr something along those lines. It's a start.

I'd call a program and see if taking that class would help you get a job, because I'm suspecting that just that alone won't.



My kid is an assistant coach for a college football team for what it's worth...

im not quite sure what i want to do with it if i decide to take.could just do it to learn more about the game i love. Then again, $750 is alot of money to drop for just that reason.

Just saw on Twitter like a half dozen recent grads have landed jobs/internships with some college teams etc.


Sounds pretty cool.
