There is a point in the recruiting process where everything starts to make sense—but for most athletes, that clarity comes after they have already missed opportunities they didn’t even realize were there.
It usually doesn’t happen all at once. It builds slowly. You start noticing players getting seen, getting responses, getting traction, and you begin to question what they’re doing differently. That’s when it becomes clear that recruiting was never just about talent. It’s about visibility, timing, relationships, and understanding how to move with purpose before anyone tells you to.
Most athletes don’t realize they’re making these mistakes until it’s too late—listen below to understand what could be holding you back.
