Meet the Founder — Dr. Kalvin Cline

From One Year of High School Football to the ACC & SEC

Dr. Kalvin Cline’s journey is one of the most unique stories in college football recruiting.

After playing just one year of high school football, Kalvin Cline earned a late scholarship opportunity to play at Virginia Tech under legendary Hall of Fame coach Frank Beamer. Despite being considered under-recruited and inexperienced, he went on to become a standout player and started as a true freshman in the ACC — an accomplishment very few athletes ever achieve.

While at Virginia Tech, Dr. Cline balanced Division I football while serving in the Corps of Cadets and participating in Army ROTC, all while completing his undergraduate degree in just three years.

After graduating early, he transferred to Texas A&M University as a graduate transfer, where he competed in the SEC under head coach Kevin Sumlin alongside future NFL stars including Myles Garrett and some of the top football talent in the country.

Kalvin Cline didn’t just make rosters at both schools — he made plays.

He scored touchdowns in both the ACC and the SEC after playing only one year of high school football — a path almost nobody in college football history has experienced.

Following his football career, Dr. Cline pursued doctoral studies in health science at Nova Southeastern University while also building a successful career in corporate sales and marketing, becoming a Presidents Club top performer.

That combination of elite college football experience, recruiting knowledge, athlete branding, digital marketing, sales psychology, and relationship building ultimately led to the creation of Full Ride University.

Today, Dr. Cline helps high school football athletes and families navigate recruiting through highlight tape development, coach outreach strategy, athlete branding, recruiting exposure, camp planning, and recruiting systems designed to help athletes create real opportunities at the next level.

Full Ride University was built to help overlooked athletes gain visibility, build relationships with coaches, and maximize recruiting opportunities — because Kalvin Cline lived that journey himself.

Football Recruiting FAQs

How do highlight tapes help football recruiting?

A strong highlight tape helps college coaches quickly evaluate your athlete’s skills, athleticism, and position fit. In many cases, your athlete’s film is the first thing coaches review during recruiting.

What film should be included in a highlight tape?

We recommend using game film, camp footage, offseason training clips, and position-specific reps that best showcase your athlete’s strengths and athletic ability.

How long should a football highlight tape be?

Most football highlight tapes should stay between 3–5 minutes. Coaches want to evaluate athletes quickly, so showing your best plays early is extremely important.

How quickly can my highlight tape be completed?

Most highlight tape edits are completed within 48 hours so athletes can quickly begin outreach and exposure to college coaches.

Do you help with coach outreach?

Yes. We provide recruiting strategy, outreach guidance, follow-up systems, and athlete management support depending on the service package selected.

What recruiting levels do you help with?

We help athletes pursue opportunities at the D1, D2, D3, NAIA, and JUCO levels based on athletic fit, academics, and recruiting goals.

What camps and showcases should my athlete attend?

Not every camp is worth attending. We help families identify camps and showcases that make sense based on recruiting goals, exposure opportunities, and program fit.

Do college coaches really look at social media profiles?

Yes. Many college coaches evaluate athletes through X (Twitter), Hudl, and recruiting platforms. Having an optimized profile and updated film helps improve visibility.

Can you work with athletes outside my state?

Yes. We work with athletes and families nationwide through virtual recruiting support, highlight tape editing, and online communication systems.

What makes Full Ride University different?

We combine highlight tape editing, recruiting strategy, outreach guidance, and athlete management into one system designed specifically for football recruiting.
