When you rack up conference championships and accolades like the Santa Monica College football team has done the past three seasons, that's when they come calling.

Coming off their third straight Pacific Conference championship, and having several players take home All-conference and All-defensive honors, many four-year football programs have taken interest in the Corsairs.

"We've had 20 players get scholarships from our team last year," said SMC Head Coach Gifford Lindheim. "Half of the SEC [Southeastern Conference] has been here during spring ball, 10 of the 12 Pac-12 schools, we're now a nationally recruited school."

The Corsairs have already begun spring training in preparation for the 2014 season and with many players leaving for four-year programs, strengthening the team with new recruits is an important task.
