The ever-competitive college football recruiting landscape is about to get smarter … or at least, that’s Benjamin Weiss’ hope.
A current senior at Northwestern University and one of four co-founders of Zcruit, Weiss and his colleagues are taking their data-driven startup and helping schools assess how likely a recruit is to commit to their university.
“We’re helping programs build better quality recruiting classes based off the software we’re providing and helping them connect with the right players at their school at the earliest possible time,” said Weiss, who plans to go full-time with Zcruit following graduation next June.
