Don’t let the hype of the recruiting process deter you from a school or staff who ACTUALLY has good intentions for you and your future success on and off the field. CHASE RELATIONSHIPS ‼️‼️‼️.

Tip: As a recruit, you should probably have your DM’s open, never know who might try to jump in there and start building a relationship.

Go where you are WANTED. Go where you have been shown all the love you deserve. Go where you have been shown the plan for you. Go where you are the top option. If you have to question these things, it's probably not home.

When contacting a coach or anyone at a university you would like to attend. PLEASE, do not start it with "I am HIM". Not a good look. #TheMoreYouKnow.

Tip: Please keep in mind that at camp, EVERYTHING you do is being EVALUATED. EVERYTHING. From body language, to ability to take instruction, to skills displayed. All of it plays a role, and can be the determining factor on if you get what you want or not .#TakesWhatItTakes.
