Number one tool you need to get recruited in 2024. If you don't know who I am, I'm Trenton Lora. I'm a former college quarterback, and now I help recruits just like you get college football scholarships. The number one tool you need is Twitter or X or whatever you want to call it. That is where most of recruiting happens. Pretty much every single college coach is on there. You're able to contact them directly. You're able to build your own Twitter profile. And your Twitter profile should be all around recruiting. Think of it as a modern recruiting profile, essentially a resume. You want to make sure that your highlights on there, all your information is on there as far as height, weight, graduation, year, high school. So that way, when a college coach comes upon your profile, they're able to know everything about you, make their evaluation, and then they can even contact you on Twitter. This is how I was able to get recruited. I used to get in touch with most of the college coaches that I talked to and most of the offers that I received and with the recruits that I work with. It's pretty much where we do most of our work as far as recruiting goes, just because of how easy it is, because you can post on there, you can DM college coaches all in just the palm of your hand. It makes things super simple. And again, college coaches know this as well. So they're on their daily looking at guys reading through their dm.
