Prior to his appointment at East Carolina in March of 2022, John Carrico III spent the 2021 season as a regional scout for the Virginia program, which followed three years as a recruiting specialist at the University of Alabama.

While with the Atlantic Coast Conference member Cavaliers under former coach Bronco Mendenhall, Carrico was directly responsible for the evaluation of quarterbacks and athlete-designated prospects. In addition, he served as an assistant NFL liaison to the director of scouting, handled the coordination of coaches travel and played a vital role in both official and unofficial visits among a myriad of other duties.

Carrico, while an undergraduate at Alabama, spent three years on Nick Saban's staff beginning in 2018. In his role, he was charged with researching prospects, providing and preparing recruiting film for coaches to review and evaluate, and utilizing XOS, Radar Recruiting, ARMS and various other database sites for the securement of prospect information.

In addition to working with the Crimson Tide's national champion football program, Carrico assisted in the UA Dean of Students Office from 2016 to 2019.

Carrico was a member of the Dean's List and National Honor Society before earning his bachelor's degree in general studies from Alabama in December of 2020.
