PRI Talk

You might automatically assume that a school is interested because they follow you on social media, but how much interest does that really communicate?

Are you staying in touch and engaging consistently with college coaches?

With all the camps and all the different names of the camps, which one is the best for recruiting purposes? Let's talk about that on this week's 5MR episode.

I get asked this question a lot every year. There are two answers to this question. Give it a listen!

When they come to your court, what are they looking for? What are they watching for? Are they just standing around talking and flipping through social media on their phones? (No, but I know it looks like that sometimes, haha)

I have one way that I always suggest with athletes and families. But that doesn't mean that the other options are bad either.

It's a question I get all the time from parents and athletes, "Jason, should we go to this clinic...this showcase...this event...?" PrepDig has expo events all through Texas every year and so I thought I would bring him on the podcast to get his perspective answering this question. Give it a listen!

Everyone's recruiting journey is different and so tips and advice in general are good, but might not fit specifically what YOU need to be doing. Even if the advice is GOOD advice, it still might not be all the information you need to make the next step in your process. https://www.privolleyball.com/post/so-you-d-like-to-get-recruited

If everyone is recruiting D1 athletes, then what does it mean to be D1 or be a D1 athlete? I don't have an answer for this at the moment. But I would like to open the discussion on this topic.

With all the information out there on recruiting, it can often be hard to pick out the good from the bad. Even the best intentions can lead to poor information. Let's talk about a few recent run-ins that I had with potentially confusing and (for a lack of a better word) poor advice.

Great question, simple answer. But there's a great reason to do find your contact information this way.

Everyone has factors that are more important than others, that's totally okay. But make sure you aren't ignoring what could be a great opportunity, just to check all of your boxes. You might not ever get them all checked! For more tips and insight into college recruiting, go to PRIVolleyball.com
