Short YouTube video/transcript of Tren Lohre (former college quarterback) advising high-school athletes about posting scholarship offers on social media. He warns that posting mostly NA/Division III offers can signal the wrong competitive level to Division I coaches and potentially reduce future opportunities. He also briefly promotes a free spreadsheet of college coaches' emails available via Instagram DM.

Don't make this one mistake when posting your scholarship offers. Now it's common knowledge that when you receive a scholarship offer that you post it on Twitter to get more traction. The issue is that not all scholarship offers are equal, so if you post one you might end up actually costing yourself other potential scholarship opportunities. If you don't know who I am, I'm Tren Lohre. I'm a former college quarterback and now I help kids just like you do the same. 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. Now what I'm talking about is when I see kids who are want to go play D1, but then they're posting NIA and D3 offers. Now first off, I'm not saying, hey, don't be happy about an offer, don't post your offer. That's not what I'm saying. Personally, I was an NA guy. Even though I received D2 offers and one single D1 offer, I'm definitely not trying to say anything bad about the lower levels, but this is just how recruiting works. Because when you post yourself getting all these NIA and D3 offers, every other coach is thinking, hey, this is a NI guy, a D3 guy. Maybe the D2 coaches are thinking, oh, this guy's getting a lot of those offers. Maybe he's actually higher than level. But the D1 coaches aren't going to be in.
