The Complete College Recruiting Guidebook for Maximizing Athletic Scholarship and Life Potential If a student plays football, he knows that face-masking is illegal. If he plays hockey, he knows that he will be penalized for high sticking. And if she plays soccer, she knows she will be red-carded for receiving two yellow cards. Athletes know the rules of the game. They know that they must play by the rules to be successful. What a student might not know is that they are simultaneously playing another game: the game of collegiate recruiting. And unlike other games, the rules of the recruiting process are not clear. Unfortunately, too many kids are left behind. Despite their skill level, academic success, motivation, and quality of character, too many qualified athletes are not recruited into college programs, and many more are recruited by the wrong schools. Why? They simply do not know the rules of the game. Athletes Wanted exposes these rules, uncovering: The NCAA bylaws that allow students to begin the recruiting process earlier than their competitors, even as early as the seventh or eighth grade. The five critical things an athlete must do and the five critical things an athlete must know to begin the process. The biggest myths of the recruiting process The most important questions a student-athlete should ask a college coach. The process for negotiating the best scholarship package.
