Transfer Portal is OFFICIALLY CLOSED 🔥

College coaches are shifting gears back to high school recruiting mode RIGHT NOW.

This is prime time — evaluations, in-person visits, and new offers are about to ramp up big time.

For athletes: your film, grades, and communication matter more than ever. Here's how to stand out and make the most of it:

1. Get your materials locked in
🏈Film fully updated and edited (best plays front-loaded)
🏈Transcripts ready and up-to-date
🏈Be proactive: send updates, reach out, and respond quickly, politely, and professionally

2. In-person meetings/visits — dress & act like a pro
🏈No slides, Crocs, hoods up, or sagging pants.
🏈Look sharp, make eye contact, give a firm handshake, use "yes sir/no sir," and thank them for their time.

3. Make sharing your info effortless
🏈Have your recruiting profile ready on your phone (save to Home Screen for quick access).
🏈Include: Name, Position, Grad Year, GPA, links to Hudl film, X handle, IG — all viewable on one clean page.
🏈AirDrop or pull it up in seconds to respect their time.

4. Follow-Up Game Strong
🏈Immediately after meeting:Follow the coach on X/Twitter
🏈Send a quick text/DM: proper intro + genuine thank you for their time

Do these things consistently and you'll separate yourself from the pack. 💯 The portal's done — now it's your turn to shine on the high school side.

@Medevil_Mindset @ArrowheadPride Best running back of all time IMO. And didn’t need to draw more attention to himself than for dominating defenses with his play.

@46Gorilla Congratulations Coop! 🦍 🏈 💪🏼

@PalumboJohn Makes what Tom Brady did for years with new receivers year after year look even more impressive.

[Brad Stroud @BStroud7]

@PalumboJohn I used to hear my Grandma say the same thing to me. To think of where the world will be when it’s my grandkids is really scary and sad.

@colgan_football The HS players energy and enthusiasm with the kids was a lot of fun to watch and the kids loved it!

@GuysSnacks I was Bank President. Only wanted that job b/c it paid the most money and I liked math. 😂 Now I’m a Director of a non-profit and don’t make near enough money, but I love the work.

[Brad Stroud @BStroud7]

@PalumboJohn My Grandma always told my mom that she feared what the world would be like when her grandkids grew up. Now I’m saying the same thing to my kids. It’s scary.

@CoachErikaSmith @Coachqcarter28 Sometimes that is the first free moment we have during a day to do reach outs. We are coaching our teams, recruiting, study halls, grade checks, etc. We send the email or text late but don’t necessarily expect that immediate answer. That’s on you when you respond.

@Coach_Pflug @DTranquill @Chiefs We are huge ND fans and Chiefs fans here in SE Kansas. We are pumped about this signing!

[Brad Stroud @BStroud7]

@PSUGORILLA71 Chills!

[Brad Stroud @BStroud7]

@kmb1002 @AintNoSeatsPod I agree…but there was a pretty questionable no call at the other end I was ok with. 😂 RCJH!

[Brad Stroud @BStroud7]

@FBCoachP @coachkill_fb Love seeing the former Pitt State Gorillas staffers getting it done.

[Brad Stroud @BStroud7]

@CoachBrianKelly Enjoy watching the playoffs with yeux faaaaaamilay

@BlueInNC16 @Buckner29966932 @barstoolsports If you can remain composed enough to play a football game, you should be able to walk thru a tunnel and remain composed. It’s called being a citizen of society like all of us. Teams being allowed to march thru the same tunnel at the same time seems to be asking for trouble though

@BballCoachMac I still think it would be fantastic to just show up at these mouthy parents workplaces on Monday and be allowed to heckle and criticize and namecall all day long while they try to make a sale to a customer or manage a department.
