LINK / STAMFORD, Conn. – Oct. 20, 2020 – NBC will broadcast a special two-hour “All-American Bowl: Declaration Day” on Saturday, Jan. 2, celebrating each of this year’s 100 All-Americans as NBC Sports Group today announced that the 2021 All-American Bowl will not be played due to health and safety concerns amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The All-American Bowl, which was originally scheduled to be played in January 2021 at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas, annually showcases the best high school football players in the country.

I think the vast majority, if not all, of those announcements (announcement special to replace the game+announcements) will be streaming with NBC setting up some local stuff for many recruits.

We should offer somewhere special, close by but not on-campus, for Leigh and his family to come to announce. If he's leaning us, they will likely take it. Have a the "sponsor" of the location pay for as much as we can get away with. Note that is different than "what the rules allow". Hell, if we're not recruiting anyone else on the team bring the whole offense down from VA.

To boot, notify NBC of it and let them set up the feed. It'll be great PR for recruiting when they disclose they are on location at __________________ at the request of the Leigh family. It just happens to be in BR or NOLA.

Like I've said before, if he visits again it will be to commit to us. Offer these things to see if he'll accept and go ahead and seal the deal.
