Vince Guinta, who was around four four years in operation and personnel roles during the Bill Callahan era, is now listed on the staff directory as the senior director of player personnel and recruiting for Nebraska. It's a return to a place where his career started to take off.
He began as a Nebraska football operations intern on the Callahan staff and was promoted to assistant director of football operations and director of football personnel and recruiting prior to the 2005 season. While the on-field results wavered during those years, the recruiting classes were well received, including additions like Ndamukong Suh, with top 25 classes all four years. He had some crossover with Bo Pelini's time in Lincoln too.
Most recently Guinta had been at Baylor since January, 2020, with previous stops also at Oregon State and Wisconsin. With the Badgers, Guinta was involved in all facets of Wisconsin recruiting and part of a 2014 class that ranked the highest in school history.
His recent Baylor at bio described that "he oversees all aspects of the Baylor Football recruiting process, which includes prospect identification, evaluations, marketing and social media, and campus visitations. Guinta’s 20 years of major college football involvement, including in the Pac-12, Big Ten, Big 12 and Mountain West conferences, provides national experience to the Bears’ recruiting efforts."
