Whoa. I like it.

 

I do, too, but I'd have edited a few of them down to make the kids look a little less like fools.

 

Love the smack between the Birmingham kid and the Taft kid in the videos. Great stuff.

 

From a multimedia standpoint, it's gorgeous. Very well designed, animated and executed.

From a content standpoint, it's sorely lacking. Everything I learned from clicking through this would fit in a 15-inch story. And what about the other preview material? I didn't see links to school capsules, schedules, features, anything. If my kid is an O-lineman at a second-tier school, where can I see his name in print?

 

that's pretty awesome

 

agree with cadet. it's interesting from a multimedia view but as far as information, all fluff and no substance.

 

Agree that's all sizzle, no steak.

 

All I want to know is whether it will earn my kid a scholarship or not.

 

and they must have worked so hard to do it

 

Definitely the most unique visual I've ever seen from a paper doing a prep football preview.

 

um ... how do I get that into a scrapbook?
