Film Highlights
When you look at much film and recruiting profiles as I do, you start to notice a lot of different variations of the same thing.

They probably don't understand what all of that means yet, but that's okay, I will keep telling them anyway.

13 Days
I talk a lot about contacting your schools each week. It doesn't have to be anything huge like updated film or chatting on the phone. Just a simple email or text usually is good! It's the hardest part of this process though. You want coaches to make sure they know you are interested. It's also really hard to contact school every week! Especially if you have a list of more than 10. But once you get down to single-digits or a Top 5 list of schools, you need to be contact
