In searching for research articles related to my DQ as to the best method to help students be recruited, I am faced with using articles that have different focuses but do relate somehow to my DQ. Below are some quotes that I will use in my research paper: “Coaches know the value of video: They can run a play in slow motion to analyze a swing or a pitch. They can navigate to a particular chapter to see how the prospective player fields grounders or to check a pitcher’s fastball. DVDs are a vital tool for evaluating and training athletes” (p. 2, Stuart). “NCAA institutions treat athletic aid as a kind of coupon off the cost of college, rewarding athletes with the most value--including football and basketball players, whose sports bring in the most money--with the best deals” (p. 2, Wolverton). “College baseball’s smallball evolution highlights a simmering tension between college coaches and pro scouts: What’s best for the coaches’ careers-winning games now-isn’t what’s best for the major league development machine” (p. 13, Bradley & Keith). “Due to advancements and affordability of technology, the NJCAA has been able to use its website and digital TV platforms as integral tools in highlighting the successes of community college student athletes” ( p. 2, Sturdivant). “The top responses as to why they chose this particular institution where the coach and the program, the reputation of the coach, the style of play by the team, perceived amount of playing time, television, exposure, perceived opportunity to play professional sport, social life, and academic factors” (p. 3, Messenger & Schneder). “Baseball’s academic-progress rate has steadily climbed in the past two years. But with a 56-game schedule played in a 90-day stretch, the teams spend more time away from campus than those in most other sports do (p. 3, Wolverton).
