A short YouTube clip by Trenton Luera giving actionable recruiting advice for aspiring college football players. Luera (a former college QB) emphasizes "working backwards" from the goal of earning a Division I scholarship — identify required measurables (height/weight, 40 time), elite game film, and on-field confidence — and offers a free spreadsheet of 6,000+ college coaches' emails via Instagram DM.

Recruiting is all about going backwards. Now I'll explain what I mean in a second. But first, if you don't know, I'm Trent Lower, I'm a former college QB and I hope recruits just like you get college level scholarships. And also if you want a free spreadsheet with 6000 plus college coaches emails, all you have to do is DM me the word email on Instagram, I'll send it to you for free. But what I mean by recruiting is all by going backwards, I'm not meaning literally you don't have to walk backwards, you don't have to do anything backwards. I just mean like you need to first think like, okay, my goal is to go D1. Okay, so that's like first things first. Now work backwards from there. Like what does it take to go D1? What do you have to look like? What do you have to do? I mean, just from a recruiting sense, to go D1, you need to look the part, you need to have the height and weight to go D1 for your position. Because obviously if you're 5, 8, you're probably not going to go D1 as an offensive lineman, but you might have a chance as a running back. But like your 40 times, you'd have to be really good. So you're gonna have to make sure that those parts are secure. What's your film gonna have to look like? It's gonna have to look really, really good. You're just going to have to blow everybody out of the water, especially if you're in a small town. And then from a recruiting perspective, you're going to have to be really confident. You're going to have to.
