Going to the American Football Coaches Association convention to find work as a coach is like going to the most intense speed-dating event in the world.
Coaches who have jobs to offer are generally swamped by other coaches looking to move up in the ranks, so it’s hard to find face time with anyone.
Therefore, former Ohio State OL Mike Brewster came up with a great way to get his resume seen by more people during the event in January, posting his CV above urinals in the men’s room, as you can see in the photo below:

Brewster hasn’t landed a graduate assistant job in the month since the convention, but his creativity has people talking, according to this article by Sports Illustrated’s Andy Staples.
Could we see the former Buckeye back on the sidelines soon? That remains to be seen, but if he doesn’t land a job, it won’t be for a lack of ingenuity.
