Time versus money in the athletic recruiting process
ShareThere are two people that this article does not pertain to at all. It is those who already have impressed coaches enough at college camps that they already have scholarships on the table. These athletes are few and far between (plus they probably don’t need much help with recruiting when schools all over the country [...]
Does making an Official Visit mean you will get a scholarship offer in the athletic recruiting process?
ShareWhen looking at the article Level of Recruiting Interest from College Coaches, the top three levels that a college coach can show a prospective recruit is a written offer, a verbal offer, and an official visit. With two of the three hopefully being able to pay for a large portion of your college education, it [...]
Scholarships, football recruiting, college coaches, and more scholarships
ShareThere is no doubt in my mind the toughest scholarship for an athlete to get is their first. The reason that I say this is because it is hard to prove to a college coach that with no other offers on the table, you are a recruit at their level. That is why it is [...]
Ten ways to save money during the athletic recruiting process

Updated Athletic Recruiting Definitions for Parents and Athletes
ShareWhen talking about the recruiting process, there are a number of different terms and phrases that I use.

Do college coaches really cheat in football and basketball?
ShareNo matter what school it is, there always seem to be rumors circulating that a recruit got paid off or was offered money during the football or basketball recruiting process. The problem is that we will really never know what schools are paying their players or finding different ways to funnel money to them. It [...]
The position you want to play versus the position college coaches want you to play
ShareIt doesn’t seem to matter much the year but there are always excellent athletes who have the opportunity to continue their career at a college for one position but pick a smaller school because they are willing to play them at the position that they want. A perfect example would be a dual threat quarterback [...]
What is the difference between a athletic recruit who has verballed or signed with a college program?
ShareAs I was updating the athletic recruiting definitions page, two terms that I felt needed on that list were a verbal commitment and a player who is signed.
