Just put one together had the following:
The XX - Intro
AC/DC - Thuderstruck
Flo Rida - Good Feeling
DJ Drama - My Moment
CCR - Fortunate Son
Fall Out Boy - My Songs Know what you did in the dark
Lil John - Turn Down for What
Phil Collins - In the air tonight
Kanye West - All of the Lights (intsrumental & hook)
Hardest part sometimes is finding a "clean" version of the songs.

Pick something fresh. Seriously, every time I'm forced to hear "Remember the Name" I want to strangle the kid. I got one kid with what sounded like a hip-hop Edith Piaf remix and he went straight to the board. I mean, he was good, but the song definitely helped him stick in my mind.

I really like anything with a good beat and clean lyrics. Anything that gets the hair on my arms to stand up works well.

Oh God please no practice footage.
If it's for recruiting purposes I don't need the clean version. As long as it doesn't sound like extra dialogue from Django it's probably ok. It's more disconcerting if the lyrics are extremely misogynistic or something like that.

I try to go with something that is new and they kids will relate to, but also appropriate. For our team highlight I used.
Jungle by X Ambassadors
Centuries by Fall Out Boy
Til I Collapse by Eminem (Our HC is infatuated with that song)
Warriors by Imagine Dragons
These are also songs that ESPN uses quite a bit for game previews and stuff like that.

In all seriousness, do colleges even want music at all?

In all seriousness, do colleges even want music at all? Good music can add flavour. It won't make or break a kid but it can help him stick in my mind. It can help a mediocre player distinguish himself from the hundreds of other mediocre players. |

Look up how to take the words out of a song and your song choice will expand.

It can help a mediocre player distinguish himself from the hundreds of other mediocre players. Having worked at the D1 level the answer isn't just no, it's HECK NO. Not only is it immediately turned off/imported into DVS where there is no sound anyway, but if foul language or an annoying gimmick was used, we would just toss it away without second thought. |

That's not how we recruit, and I don't think many people are importing recruit film into DVSport anymore (we certainly don't and I don't know anyone who does). Nowadays you just have a Hudl or YouTube link

If you're using Hudl to create this highlight, how are you choosing your own songs?

I never put music into tapes for kids, if they have music I delete it. Who has their computer speakers turned on anymore anyway?

Nowadays you just have a Hudl or YouTube link Every ACC and SEC program I am in contact with does for the players they are seriously interested in so they can watch tape using their system's features. At the FCS level I know for a fact that DV is used, and files are sent out by the recruiting coordinator to position coaches for evaluation. But back to the main point, don't put music on highlights. It gives no advantage, and at it's worst can completely turn a school of a kid. |

Well that's not how anybody I'm in contact with does it, and it's not how we do it.

We certainly don't.
I don't mean to say that the music matters much, it's not going to turn a 5-star into a 1-star or vice-versa. It's just a tiny little thing that can help a tiny little bit when I'm looking at LITERALLY 150 guys to fill that 14th WR slot. The guy who had a cool tune is just a tiny bit more memorable.
I don't doubt the assertion that the very largest of schools have a fancy system, although even for them I think it's overkill; but the vast majority of us aren't doing it like that, and the vast majority of kids aren't SEC bound. It's usually meatball scouting, dozens of films watched in a row and quickly sorted into Yes/No/Maybe.
There are many factors that are far more important, like having clear and accurate contact info, and ordering your clips best-worst.
