What Families Often Misunderstand About Recruiting

Recruiting standards alone rarely tell the full story.

Recruiting standards are not guarantees A mark that is recruitable at one school may be below the level needed at another.
Academics matter Academic strength can dramatically affect recruiting opportunities at highly selective schools.
Roster needs constantly change Coaches recruit differently based on graduation losses, event-group depth, and transfer portal movement.
Timing matters The recruiting process changes significantly from sophomore year to senior year.
Every event group is different Sprint recruiting differs dramatically from distance, jumps, hurdles, throws, and multis.
Communication matters How athletes communicate with coaches can significantly impact recruiting outcomes.
