What does it look like to work with the College Soccer Guy as Junior + Cost REAL?

Hello, potential college soccer player who is a junior. I am Zev, the College Soccer Guy, as you already know. And real quick, I want to apologize. You've received some messages saying if you don't show up, you'll be banned. I apologize for the aggressive nature. We've had some students not show up, and if you don't show up, you will be banned. So it's important to me that you respect my time as I'm giving it to you for free to try and help you play college soccer. Likewise, in the bottom corner, you will see a gear button that allows you to watch this video on 2x speed so you can get through it a little faster. All right, I'm really excited to talk to you about what it looks like to work with me if you are a junior. Okay, step number 1, are we the right fit? I am not the right fit for everybody. I certainly try and help as many people as I can, but maybe I can help you, maybe I cannot. Part of that process is, can I make you quit? 'Cause if I can make you quit, we don't have to worry about any of this stuff. Life gets really easy and whoop-de-doo. Finally, by the end of today or by the end of this particular Zoom video, I'm gonna show you kind of the price structure. And I'm going to ask you, like, which model are you looking at? We have a few different ones based on what you need, and I'd like to know which one you want. And so by the end of the call that we have together, I want to answer all your questions. So that is then to say, how many phone calls have you had so far, and how many visits have you been on? And based on where you are in the process, hopefully you feel like I do, like you're late to the process and you really got to get going. There's this large sense of urgency. And if you don't feel that, part of the reason I'm asking about phone calls, if, you know, Typically we have students who have already committed, and I really would like to know where you're at so we can get started ASAP. We already have about 5 kids committed who are sophomores going into their junior year, so, and they're going to the best schools because that's what they get to do, and the best academic schools. So if you're not, you know, getting significant interest, I want to know why and figure out what the issue is and see if I can help you. Which then to say, what do you need the most help with? People usually need me for a couple reasons. ID camps, videos, communication with coaches, and getting more exposure. And of those 4, I'm going to kind of ask you what you want the most help with. Which is then to say, what do mom and dad, what do you believe your son or daughter needs most help with? If you're not watching this video with your parents, please stop the video and go get your parents. Likewise, if you are a parent, I would politely, politely ask you to please go get your athlete because this is about them and this is their process and I must do it with them if we're going to work together. Okay. Why do you think you should start now? So why is it that you believe this is the time to start? Maybe you think it's too early. Maybe you think you're too late. So this is a student who started with us in 8th grade, and I would say 80% of our students are in 7th, 8th, and 9th and 10th grade. Now, as a junior, I'm letting you— and I want to speak to you because I've seen your video at this point, or I'm about to look at your information in more detail. And I've initially said upon filling out my form, I want to learn more about you. So given all that, I want to say this. This is an 8th grader who's talking to a Division III top school. Where are you at? I want to see if you're kind of in the same boat or not quite there yet. Then I want to say to your athlete, why do you want to play college soccer? There's a lot of work for you. It's a lot of work for me. Why do you want to do all this? And then for your parents, I want to be very clear: academics with me will always come first. And the reason for that is I played pro soccer at the highest level. I made $900 a month. And thank God I got my master's degree. Thank goodness I got my UEFA license because it enables me to do what I'm doing with you now. So, education will always come first. And if we agree that academics come first, why is it that you and mom and dad want to help your athlete play college soccer? We could just make them quit. And if you're a female soccer player watching this, you must understand that you'll get committed this year more than likely, depending on what level you're looking for. But top academic D3 or top-level Division I, or D2 or D3, for girls you are a senior. You don't really get your senior year to get recruited. Now, then I'm gonna basically go over your video, and in your video I'm gonna put in two categories. What will the coach think of your video, and what is your level? And I'm gonna give you my best opinion based off of our phone call. Then I'm gonna say we need to fix your video, and then I'm gonna show you this really cool tool we have. So we have this awesome tool that enables us to basically email schools very aggressively. Now, when you are going through this process, you must send hundreds of emails to the exact same school. So you must email— say you have 50 schools, you have to email that are your top. You have to email those 50 schools 4 times. So that's already 200, 300+ emails. So what I can do is I can press select all to the schools of your choice, of course. Click write emails, go dear hashtag coach hashtag genuine hashtag school. And now the coaches will feel that every email is genuine. And that's super important because we want to make them genuine because we get a better response. And then also we can get an email from all these people and get it sent out to them. The system is very special to me because I built it myself and I spent my life savings on it. And I'm also able— it automatically reminds you when you need to follow up with somebody. And this little robot will tell you every single ID camp, every club team in your area, every college team in your area, so that way we can create a list. I've already— we'll have created your custom list for you. Then the system will automatically use the software that I've built in, some AI-ness to automatically categorize. Is the email genuine? Is it a generic email? Is it— do we need to have a phone call? Did they text us? So that way we know who we need to text with, who we need to go on visits with. And then every time you receive an email, it will automatically save it and go, hey, you got an email from so-and-so. They talked about an ID camp. Boom, there's the ID camp. And they save it, saves it automatically down here so we can stay very organized. So I need to, one, fix your video. Two, I want to go over the AI system so we can use it. Pick your camps, go over— you've probably done a bunch of stuff. You probably had phone calls, you probably had some text messages. So since you've already had all of that, I need to read it. Why is it not— why don't you have an offer? What is going on? Or maybe you're in a great spot, I need to know why we can make it better. So that's what the audit is for. And then your club soccer is something we always have to talk about depending on your situation. We're going to narrow down your list, we're going to figure out Who likes you? Then who do you like? And then finally, your coach. We said that academics come first, but the truth is, if you don't love your coach, you will be miserable. So if that's the case, and I would ask you, have you had a coach or a teacher you really didn't like? Would you like them to be your coach or teacher for 4 years? Probably not. So you want to be able to feel comfortable that they coach you and that you can talk to them when things are tough. Which is then to say, I had the best college experience ever, which is exactly why I love talking about helping kids play college. I was the captain. These are all my teammates. They're all coming to my wedding. And that was because I had an amazing college coach. My brother had a miserable experience because his coach was a complete prick, was drunk, and ended up being fired a couple years ago for being a drunk on campus. And he abused my brother both mentally and physically, and he didn't play more than 2 minutes the entire time. And he scored a goal in those 2 minutes, and he was actually at one period the most goal scored in the amount of minutes played in all of the NCAA because he only played like 2 minutes and he scored in those 2 minutes. So the coach was a prick. Now I don't want you to find that. Now you may say to me, when should we start this process? Like, when is the right time? So this video will kind of explain to you when I think you should start. So the student that's going to pop up on screen here is actually a former student of mine who now works for me. He played at UCSB and he's interviewing our other students about, you know, how we got started with them. When did your recruiting process start where you're like, hey, what schools am I interested in?

Sophomore year.

Okay.

I would do ID camps, you know the grind.

Hell yeah.

He was later drafted to LAFC, which is of course very exciting. ID camps, baby.

You know the grind. And I wasn't on the map because of the teams I played on. You know, nobody scouts UPSL for high— or for college players, right? And I would do well. I would do well at ID camps.

What's the recruiting process like for you? When did you start?

I played up a year for a while. I don't think I was necessarily like late to the recruiting process, but like, I mean, in hindsight it's kind of crazy to think about because I committed when I was going into my junior year of high school, whereas like my process started like a year or two before that whole time, like before I committed. So I mean, I was what, like 14, 15 years old, like starting to look the college. It was just crazy looking back on it.

When did you start the recruiting process?

Basically every time I went to a showcase, I emailed the coach like about 100 times.

And that 100 times is really— she had to do that manually because back when we were doing with her, we didn't have the tool I have now. Now we can do that super quick.

I committed going into my junior year.

Is that late for girls or is that early?

I think, I mean, at the time I think it was later. These girls were like committing my freshman year.

How is that even possible?

I didn't even know college was a thing.

And that's the scary thing. You know, you as a junior, you're like, oh my gosh, they're already— they're committing going into their junior year or they're committing in junior year. That's why I'm a little like, where are you at in your process? And one of the things we talk about is, you know, this was a player who committed at the end— excuse me, at the end of their freshman year, verbally committed to University of Denver at the end of freshman year. That's a D1 school. How could they do that? I thought Division 1 schools can't talk to them. They've been talking to kids for a long time. They break the rules. It is very normal. So in your case, I'm trying to figure out where are you at? And then this is a student that committed their sophomore year going into their junior year, and he kind of explains, you know, why it's so important. You are committed as a 2026, which is super exciting. One of the things we spoke about early on is you're a good soccer player. We knew that from an early age. Tell me a little bit just about how you committed to Duke as a '26. Just brag for a minute on your own.

Well, I think it was a lot of hard work, and I think working with you really helped because you just held me in every single part of the process, and you really made it so that all I really had to focus on was being the best soccer player I could be and being the best student I could be. And you took care of all the recruitment parts of it.

I really appreciate that.

With the constant emailing, the constant like keeping the coaches up to date, emailing all the schools, just— and now I'm going to my dream school. I'm just— I owe a lot to you.

Thank you. Which was of course a lot of work, and that's why I'm trying to partially see if I can scare you away, because if I can scare you away, we don't have to worry about any of this and life gets a lot easier. So if I have not scared you away and you're excited, then you need to know what we, what we look like compared to other, other organizations. So you've probably heard of NCSA, and even if you don't work— yeah.

So right now we, we did the end—

even if you don't work with me, I think it's important you hear what other companies are like. Yeah.

So right now we, we did the NCSA thing and it's a bit of a mess.

And it's a waste of everything.

Yeah.

Let's just call it how it is.

Listen, we understand what you charge and I feel like it's a good investment.

Lack of experience, we connected with NCSA and everything you've said about NCSA has been absolutely spot on. We've— I feel like I've ate that cost and it's been terrible. One of the biggest things that connected me was your list of which ID camps to go to.

We met BioOnline Coach Joey for the first time at one of those mass camps, the elite college ID camp up in the LA area, LMU and all. Yeah.

That one's a good one.

Yeah, it was really good.

Uh, you got a good review from, uh, I think WashU from St. Louis. Just, you know, talk to these guys throughout both days and they actually talked about NCSA and, and kind of said like, hey, we don't like to receive emails from those guys. We, we want to hear from you guys directly. So I think we, we kind of, we watched your video. It resonated. It said the same thing we heard from them directly.

And this is really important because when we're working with you guys, we want you to know and honestly really take into account the fact that it has to come from you. So the biggest difference between me and them is one, I will edit all your videos, they will edit one video. You must meet with my team and I once a week, every week. They'll talk to you on the phone once and it won't even be a Zoom meeting. They will not message you all the time. We have unlimited messaging. We have our organic email system that comes from your own account and is of course genuine. We give a money-back guarantee, because I expect if I'm going to work with you that I think you're good enough, you just need to fix maybe some things, and if it's not working, then you should go find someone else that can help you. And in this model, once you sign up with them, you are stuck and you cannot get out of it. And then finally is they believe in the platform model, and that means that they think that if you're on their platform, you will get recruited. And the reason this makes me very uncomfortable is because these are the types of schools they're talking about. You can go to Wittenberg, you can go to Milligan, Gerber, Wilmington. Glauchester. You know, these are not really the schools we're looking for when we do this process with you. Probably these are called small Christian schools called NCCAA, and I don't think that's what you're looking for. So you need to know that even if you don't work with me, you cannot depend on anybody else to get you recruited. You must do the process. So we empower you with social media, emails, the connections that I have to help you play college soccer. So in saying that, this is why I would ask your athlete Is this the type of help you even want? Do you want us to help with your video, email schools, go to camps, find the audit, audit what you've already done, see what we need to fix, and talk about club soccer? And then finally, what is your parents— you know, is this what your parents want? Is this the type of help you guys want? And then, you know, I want to show you what it looks like to work with me on a day-to-day. So you're going to get a coach plus myself. Your Zoom meetings will be with your coach. The reason that's really important is I'd love to do the Zoom meetings with you, but I have to make some content, which does take a small part of my time. But the main part I'm really busy with is I have to go to NCAA conferences, learn about the new NCAA rules, the new club rules. Luis Robles, who's the director of MLS Next, I have a relationship with as of 5 days ago because I have become very popular on social media and he knows that what I say, people listen to. So I get to hear about the club situations before it comes out to the public, which of course I want to share with you. Then I have to figure out which club teams need what situations, meaning what positions do they need. I have to edit all your videos, and I have to get— I'm getting emotional because I have all this work I have to do for you. And I also have to make sure we create your list of schools. We're going to message with you all the time. We want to edit all your videos. We also want to go game video review. I'm going to edit your videos, so I may as well tell you how to get better. And then you're going to get a Google Drive, and your Google Drive will look like this. First thing is you'll get a bunch of lists of schools. You're going to get your top list of schools. You're going to get a list of schools by your major. I'll show you what this looks like. You'll get your top list so we can always keep those at the top of our mind, because we also have the AI system to keep track of these and where do we need the genuine response, was it generic, so we always know where we're at and we have something genuine in their Instagram and their ID camp dates, so we just always have an idea. And then also, we want to keep track of everything we do. So we're going to give you assignments that you're going to do alongside us, and we give our assignments to ourselves too. We have to make your videos and write emails with you, and then every meeting we record using this technology that you see right now. So that way you get to see every meeting we do together. And we want to make sure we have your showcase pamphlets. We're going to make your highlight videos for you. We have a bunch of videos we made for her, and then we had a bunch of videos that we have to make, every touch videos. And that's a current student right now. Now, in saying that, the next thing is you're going to get the AI system. Now, if you're not being genuinely recruited by a school you'd like to go to in the 3 months, then we're fired and we refund you. 98% of our students have received a minimum of $60,000 upwards of $300,000. Now this just does depend on your grades and what schools you'd like to go to, but so far that's been our track record. Now in saying all that, we have a couple different options when it comes to working with us. So one thing I want to reiterate is the importance of your video. So I'm going to show you this just really briefly. When did we, we met our first, our first, first call, like when we were deciding to meet together?

Last Friday?

No, Wednesday.

Wednesday, right?

Last Wednesday. Last Wednesday. Was when we had a discussion about meeting, then we started working that week, or pretty close to it. That was like March 1st. We met again on March 5th, fixed the video within a week, resent the email, and we went from— we had offers, but not from the schools we wanted. Is that fair to say? Right.

That's right.

And then within a week, we had your dream school. Yeah, it's pretty amazing.

Listen, I'll tell you, I give you credit. The video, when we watched the video, I was like, wow, It's a lot of the same footage, but it looks completely different. So fantastic job. Thank you so much. Thank you for putting that together. That really looked great.

Yeah, that's my job. So one of the reasons I show you that is because video is just, it's just so important that we get it right. And so as we do this with you, we want to make sure we do. So these are obviously other testimonials I can show you later. So here's the first model. We do everything for you in this model, meaning We are with you until you commit, okay? We're with you until you find your right school. And in this model in particular, you don't lift a finger. We create the email account for you. You don't do anything. You submit your videos to us. We do weekly meetings because we need to learn your, like, how you write, and we want to make sure we represent you. But you don't really do anything other than we send the emails, we respond to the emails for you, we get a hang of how you talk and what you would say, and we get to know your genuine interests, and then we respond, we know your major, and we are you. We just, you don't have to lift a finger. We clone you and I literally respond to the coaches for you. Now this model is not as collaborative, meaning let's say a coach emails us saying, hey, you know, can we get on a phone call? I go to you and say, here's what you're going to say, here's what you're going to do, and you're going to have to get on the phone call and you're going to do it. And of course we're collaborating because we want to reach your top schools, but this is a project where I am holding your hand, pushing all the buttons for you, and you have to basically do what we say and in a way you're letting go of part of the process and you're going to do everything in our way. That's option number 1. Now option number 2 is it's a little bit more collaborative. We're going to write the emails with you, but you press send. So if you say, "Well, I'd like to rephrase it like this," we go, "Look, we're on the same team here. It's us against the soccer gods. We're on the same team and that's the enemy," quote unquote, or the person we're trying to achieve or defeat in this way. And so because of that, we want to work together. I would argue for most of our students, obviously we want to use a model where we're collaborative because we want you to enjoy the phone calls. We want you to go understand why we get on these phone calls, what to say, and to grow as a person. This one is really, we do it for you. You sit down and we just do it. This one is we get to work together. Now we still edit all your videos and everything else is the same, but we get to do it together. And then finally is, let's say you're like, I just want your AI tool. That thing was awesome. I have my videos. I know what to do. You can message with some of our coaches in training. They're not like as good as the coaches that work for me, but they're trying to be. They're in training. So you can message them questions and you get to use the AI. And you go, look, I can fix my video on my own. And you get the email system, you get the Google Drive I showed you, and you get a recommended camp list. And you go, I can do this by myself. So one of the things I'm going to do at the beginning of our call when I see you is I'm going to go, which option is the one you're looking forward to the most? Which one fits for you? And then based off of that, I'm going to kind of direct our call to see which one you might like. It's been a pleasure. Thank you so much for listening. I really appreciate it, and I'll talk to you very soon.
