2. PITFALLS OF RECRUITING

3. RECRUITING MEDIA: THE NAMES TO KNOW

4. THERE ARE OVER ONE MILLION HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL PLAYERS IN THE UNITED STATES

5. INSIDE THE NUMBERS Nearly one million high school football players currently in United States If each class is equally represented – 275,000 seniors playing high school football this season 128 Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) football programs 25 scholarships per recruiting class 3200 available scholarships One in every 86 high school football seniors will land an FBS scholarship By those numbers it would be possible for the entire Moore School District (or a district similar) to not have a player sign an FBS scholarship this year

6. DON’T BE AFRAID OF SELF PROMOTION Do all you can to keep your HUDL page updated and concise Not every play needs to be present : start every tape with your best Always show interest to the schools showing interest in you Don’t close any doors for yourself When speaking to coaches – don’t let them forget you, but avoid being pushy

7. SOCIAL MEDIA: EVERYONE IS WATCHING You are a brand Some simple rules No drugs, crudeness, or illegalities BUT can be used for good

8. STREET AGENTS/HANDLERS: NOT YOUR FRIEND

9. RECRUITING SERVICES: AT YOUR OWN RISK
