CGS is the first All-Star Event to implement an “OTA” style format for football professionals.  Our format showcases the player through practices and a team period in front of executives from top professional leagues such as the NFL, CFL, and UFL.  The players also attend seminars, practices, perform individual drills, 1 on 1’s, team drills, do personal assessments, and in many cases have personal untimed interviews with the scouts and executives from these professional clubs.

Why should you sponsor?

The College Gridiron Showcase is an event that serves the under served.   This give College seniors who would not otherwise have an opportunity to be seen by scouts to be seen.   It also is an opportunity for NFL teams to be able to watch "actual" football and interview players they missed over the course of the season.   This event also has helped people who want to get into the business get real work experience with NFL teams.   This is an event the NFL could and should do but doesn't.   LOTS of sponsorship and networking opportunities for all involved!

Jose Jefferson

My name is Jose Jefferson and I am the owner/operator/Executive Director of The College Gridiron Showcase.   CGS has been around for 12 years and continues to grow every year!  CGS is an officially sanctioned NFL event.   I have been a football coach for over 25 years.   I have also been in athletic administration for over 12 years.   I am currently the General Manager for Florida International University.   I have done 2 NFL internships in Personnel as well (Packers/Vikings).   I also played 5 years professionally.   

I have built a reputation of being honest, fair, and service driven.  I have created CGS to be the same.   I am looking for long term relationships, not quick fixes or short term solutions.
