New High Schools!?!
How will this effect my sons ability to be recruited by colleges if he plays for one school and then after two years, has to change to another system. Does anybody out there have an opinion about this matter?? Please Share... Just so you know I am considering sending him to St. Joe, but am afraid I can't afford this. Oh and another thing, this isn't a " My son's better than your son" blog. I just added the video for a visual. 3 comments from 3 users

Don't send him to St. Joe! That's probably less exposure than Memorial LOL Save the money you'll spend at St Joe for college! posted by

None of this wording is not on the video. I want to reiterate that this video has nothing to do with the blog. The Issue is: How will the school change effect a kids chances of recruitment? It has to have some effect, especially if the change comes between his or her Soph. or Jr. year, Which as we all know is the most important time for getting videos and Recruitment packages out. Heres Gustavo, He played for Memorial, but next year look for him at the ???? School?? He has gotten Invites for the summer camps, but when they ask what team he gonna play for I still don't know what to tell them. posted by

Aztlan101- Most college's will not ask you what HS you went to, not right off the bat. THEY WILL ASK WHAT SELECT/TRAVEL TEAM YOU ARE ON. Who is the coach?!? Football is differ. There is not much travel leagues. FB does require power, size and hopefully speed. This video is of interest. It is ok if that is all you have. It does not tell me stats, kid's size or personal awards. Remember you are not the only parent w/ aa special athelete trying to go to school. The coach will see or be told of an athlete's skills. You as a parent must prepare your athlete for the next level. The local school is not a recruiting service. The athlete must have the skills to go to the next level. As you know there is D1,2,3, JrCollege levels. All have their own requirements. Remember too that D1 will pick their players early. They are lookin at 2009 graduates already. J/C pick last. But rules change all the time. There are scholarships. You can go red shirt or try walk on. But they must see you. All kids in emails, videos etc, are 6'5", 240 and can throw the bomb or pitch 95 mph. Yes parents add more that whats there. Athelete's must be seen. Peroid. Atheletes' must be graded against others at tryouts, camps. They will look at thier skills, attitudes, desire, instincts, leaderships and then go to harder requirements. Your grades. Your core classes must have been meet. Your paperwork to college is already done. There is a few HS coaches who will give that call but he is not taking your ACT/SAT tests. He is not strapping up that athelete's shoes. The my son is better than your son is very negative. The athelete must be a team player, not cocky. This next level is - is not HS dad's informing HS coaches who is good or not. Change the wording and it will have a better effect. Here is some things to consider to go to the next level: (1) athelete's academics is not an issue, (2) They have fine tuned their great skills, (3) they are not seasonal players, (4) They travel to camps, showcases, evaluation workouts, they got exposed, (5) They know the game and love to play and (6) they (parents too)sacrificed a lot to get to practices, events. Someone noticed. Best of luck.
