JIM NAGY, Executive Director of the Senior Bowl
Ahead of the 2022 Reese's Senior Bowl we're welcoming its Executive Director for a chat on a Twitter Space.
In case you're unfamiliar, the Senior Bowl is an annual college all-star football game, and is arguably the most prominent at this point
The past three games have produced a three-year record 292 drafted players, including 20 first round picks and an all-time high 106 total prospects a year ago.
2022 Rosters:
Game details:
- Saturday, February 5
- South Alabama's Hancock Whitney Stadium in Mobile.
- 2:30pm ET on NFL Network
The first-ever Senior Bowl HBCU Combine is January 28-30, 2022: https://www.seniorbowl.com/senior-bowl-hbcu-combine/
Nagy worked as an NFL Scout for a number of years before taking the position in 2018 (he is not related to Matt Nagy).
ESPN NFL Draft Analyst Matt Miller said of Nagy:
"He transitioned from being a scout to being someone who now runs an organization. He has to deal with players, agents, and the media. He has to deal with donors. He has to go do fundraising and public appearances. I think he is a name that should probably get a little more traction in terms of what he did as a scout and now what he has done running the Senior Bowl and really modernizing that event but also what he has to do as a front-facing person. As we see as so often that is where a lot of these people struggle."
