My 2 cents worth on this.... 1) Grades, Grades and Grades. 2) Focus on Camps at
Colleges of interest. 3) Combines are good if you have the money. Gives some extended
exposure. But not a necessity. 4) On varsity videos, only use 5 - 7 standout plays and
highlight your son with arrow or circle. 5) Hit the weights and work on speed. 6) Find out
which colleges the Coach works with (most staffs have respected conections) 7) Take
the ACT early (in Sophomore year) Use it to see where he is and he can work on the
weak areas. 8) setup NCAA eligibility Junior year 9) Late Sophomore or early Junior year
fill out College of interest recruiting questionaire on their website.

Grades and athletic ability will get him in NAIA and D3 schools. You can start making contacts with these after Sophomore year. D1 and D2 his Junior year. Don't get
discouraged!! All Schools will be working Seniors first. As they wind down with Seniors
they will start on the next class. So it could be late Junior year or early Senior year before
interests start popping up.
