So last night I was talking to a parent and his son, and we're going over the recruiting process. And one of the big things that I brought up is just patience and how key it is in recruiting. Also, if you don't know who I am, I'm Trent Loire. I'm a former college quarterback. So be sure to follow for more if you want more content like this. Now, I'm sure you've heard this before about how you have to be patient recruiting. I'm sure you're like high school head coach has probably told you that if you've talked to them about recruiting. And a lot of my recruiting philosophy is about being aggressive, being proactive, not waiting around for anyone else. But at the same time, you still need patience. It's kind of an oxymoron that you need patience while being aggressive, but it is the truth. Truth. It's kind of like farming. You're going to put down these seeds months before you actually get that scholarship offer. I mean, sometimes if you're starting out as 27 or even a 26 right now, you might not get an offer for a year plus, that's totally fine, that's normal. But the issue is everybody expects to start sending out emails, start sending out dms, posting on Twitter, going to camps, like right now, and they expect to get an offer in the next month or two. And that's just unrealistic expectations. Then you end up getting frustrated with the process. You stop doing.
