CIS recruiting has and will continue to be hot and heavy topic over the coming months.

The intense recruitment of players from across Canada the past several years has continually raised the level of university football in this country.

Twenty five years ago many programs including McGill, Manitoba and McMaster did not even have full time head coaches.

Many programs like Western Ontario, Toronto and Alberta maintained faculty teaching responsibilities for their full time head coaches.

Programs such as U of Regina, Laval and Montreal did not even exist.

Today every program across the country has a full time head coach football coach only. Every program has at least one full time assistant.

Many have as many as four full time assistants. The opportunity for young coaches wishing to one day be a full time university coach has quadrupled in this country.
