So this is the best way to ruin your recruiting. And the sad thing is, a lot of families do this in their recruiting. Then it becomes too late, they realize it's wrong and then by then they can't really fix it enough to get the best results possible. Also, if you're new here, I'm Trent Lore. I'm a former college quarterback. So be sure to follow for more content like this. And also if you want a free spreadsheet of 6000 plus college coaches emails, all you have to do is DM me the word email on Instagram and I'll send to you for free. So the best way to ruin your recruiting is just take no action, rely on someone else, rely on luck. Believe this lie that, hey, you just have to play well and they'll find you. Even though there's 100,000 plus high school football recruits out there trying to get recruited just like you. And somehow, just by playing pretty well, you're going to stand out amongst that crowd. Now, you've probably gotten told this by maybe your high school head coach, maybe by friends, teammates, former teammates. And so you've believed this for a while. But hopefully it's early because I've talked to plenty of families on calls and they talk to me and say, yeah, we believe this. We believe X, Y and Z was going to happen. Now we're coming in our senior year realizing that that's completely wrong. We have to take into our own hands.
