97.3% of high school football players will never get a college football scholarship. Here's why the 2.7% succeed while everyone else fails Reality number one talent alone isn't enough anymore. Recruiting is completely different than what's played on the field. There are thousands, if not tens of thousands of talented kids who never get recruited because they don't know how to play the recruiting game. Reality number two Your high school coach isn't going to get you recruited. Their job is to win games, not market you to college coaches. Expecting them to handle your recruiting is setting yourself up for failure. Reality number three College coaches aren't watching your high school games. They're not going to be driving hours to random Friday night games hoping to discover the next star. You have to bring yourself to their attention. Reality number four Social media is recruiting. Now. If you don't have a strong Twitter presence, you're invisible to college coaches. Every coach checks their social media before they even recruit you. Reality number five Starting recruiting during your senior season is too late. By then, most coaches have already filled their recruiting boards, and so by then, you're fighting for leftover scraps. Reality six grades matter more than you think. I've seen 4.40 kids.
