PISCATAWAY, N.J. — From his home in Pristina, Kosovo, Muhamed Hasani spent months assembling a video package that he used to promote his basketball skills.
Hasani, a 6-foot-3, 190-pound shooting guard, videotaped some of his own games and collected various discs of others. He then broke them all down on a computer in his house and put together a DVD mix showcasing his highlights.
Then he e-mailed the coaching staffs of more than 300 Division schools with a link to highlights of himself he had put up on YouTube.
If they responded with interest, Hasani would send them one of his DVDs via FedEx or DHL.
“It was my idea,” Hasani said recently. “I would e-mail the whole coaching staff — head coach, associate head coach, assistants.”
