Jim Harbaugh might be the current king of satellite camps, but Nebraska's Mike Riley, quietly, isn't far behind him.
Riley saw first-hand how recruiting momentum can be generated by satellite camps when he was the coach at Oregon State, where he was among the first coaches to take his staff across the country with satellite camps and guest coach at instructional camps. The results spoke for themselves, as the Beavers landed a number of quality prospects they would have never gotten without the camps. Riley continues to stress the value of satellite camps now that he's at Nebraska, and he was one of the most vocal proponents of the camps when the NCAA temporarily banned them before later reversing course and allowing coaches to work with kids off campus.
