Recently, Fordham coach Joe Moorhead accepted a coordinator position at Penn State. One of the interesting legacies of this move is that now Penn State and Fordham are sharing a sattelite camp:

Even though some teams don't like them, something like this could be a real game-changer for an FCS program and an FBS program. Aside from the fat that the Big 10 isn't supposedly allowed to play FCS teams (to be overturned, I think, in the next year, probably), could camps like that be the future?

In the past the camps have gone the other way - i.e. Lehigh coaches have gone to Penn State camps to scout out players. Interesting to me that the reverse seems to be happening now.

Since K.C. Keeler became coach at SHSU, we have become involved in the these satellite camps with FBS schools. One of our top RB recruits came out of a camp. Not sure how beneficial it is for the FBS schools because of the lack of truly elite undiscovered talent, but FCS schools can surely benefit.
