Here are some top tips to help you go through this college recruiting process. Number one, diversify your school list. Hey, not everybody's a Power 5 player and that's okay. I understand that a lot of people want to go for reach schools, as I call them. But make sure that you're going after some mid majors or Division 2 or Division 3 schools or even JUCO can be a really good fit and diversify. If you're only going for the top schools, you're not giving yourself the best chance. Number two is have a really good highlight video. Very, very important in this college recruiting process. It start dialogue with college coaches. And number three, be proactive. Reach out to college coaches. And number four, get in front of the correct coaches that are involved and have say in recruiting.
