The college search for athletes is a very individual quest. A winning strategy for one prospect could be a losing strategy for another. I think we can all agree that when it comes to recruiting, the “blue chip” kids are going to be found. It’s just a matter of when.
That said, the majority of the prospects looking for a home on a college campus and a varsity team are NOT the blue chip kids. These prospects need to develop and execute a separate plan of attack and begin to tackle what I call the “grey areas” of recruiting.
When I speak of grey areas, I am alluding to alternative tactics that could help families and their children reach a little higher and have a better chance of success in the college search.
