Hate to burst your bubble, but no college team in america will really look at those things and consider a kid for a scholarship. Highlight videos for an example, why would a college want to see your best plays? No. They want to see how you play every play even when the ball isn't going your way. Same thing with lifting maxes. They hardly never tell how good a player can be. The only thing of value is GPA-ACT/SAT scores. I wish every kid the best of luck for the class of 2015.

Coaches actually do evaluate film and highlight videos. These are a big way they decide on who to possibly pursue. Do they offer solely on a highlight reel? Rarely if ever. I follow college football recruiting pretty closely and lots of times a player or coach will comment about liking what they have seen on film or the player saying something along the line Coach X liked what he saw on my film so he invited me to camp etc... Most college coaches spend several hours and days sorting through film to decide on if further contact is necessary.
