Bias in Recruiting

Ever since I was a freshman, I've been going to recruiting camps along with thousands of other kids. However, it always seems to be the same kids getting recruited. It's always the tallest, fastest or strongest kids. Although these are the most looked for traits in athletes, there is some traits they should also consider. The amount of determination and heart the athletes play with. Who in the world thought Christian McCaffrey on Stanford would be a top contender in College Football. He is a 6 foot 200 pound running back, but the thing that surprised most people was that he is white. What people don't consider is his family background. His dad was an NFL player and his grandpa competed in the Olympics as a sprinter. There seems that there should be a lot more factors that go into recruiting, however, were stuck with them limiting all of our talents to Size. Strength. Speed.
