I am having trouble figuring this out. Team makes a post about needing players. Players respond, they talk to a coach, and receive an offer. They don't complete an application and repeat the process. 3 months later these players still "just want an opportunity."

My advice, find a program where you can play, make a commitment, and stay put. These low win programs only need a few guys to make a huge gain. Be the impact player in a program not just
