John Blake has a knack for recruiting

Posted Feb 6, 2009
John Blake sat on the third row, just to the left of the teacher, in his sophomore biology class at Sand Springs. "He made such an impression on me that I still remember exactly where he sat in my class when he was 15 years old," said Butch Davis. "That's John Blake. He has a gift when it comes to relationships." Blake, recruiting coordinator at UNC, is still a hit with people. He has become, in three years at UNC, the king of football recruiting on the east coast. (Tulsa World)
