Start with fit

Start with fit

Recruiting is a two-way evaluation.

A coach is deciding whether a player can help the program. The player is deciding whether the school and team can support the person, student, and athlete they want to become.

01

School fit first

Begin with learning, location, campus life, support, and a realistic financial range.

02

Role over label

A meaningful, developmentally useful opportunity can matter more than a division name or public status.

03

Evidence over urgency

Use current rules, direct questions, full costs, written terms, and what the staff is prepared to do next.
