That's why I refuse to believe that a college kid could just intern there. Unless you're extremely connected like in your case, they won't let someone work with them that probably won't even have the job after a few months.
I just found an article by a guy who was an intern and turned into a scout...

What sort of advice do you have for someone looking for this kind of job (areas to study/work, ways to approach the organization, etc.)?
Have a ‘football’ background. It sounds obvious, but it’s true. When we are looking to hire young scouts we almost always choose people who played, coached or were involved with a team in some aspect in college. It’s not mandatory but it’s almost mandatory.
