June 1st 📲 day for the 2028 class.
☝️Reminder:
Recognize the difference between recruiting and marketing.
Quality culture & program building recruiting is like a 2-way long form job interview. Proceed patiently and wisely.
In today’s game, the patient & long eval of the player/person/program is what will win.
And I’m STILL of the opinion that early offers don’t mean a thing - in fact, they work against all (important) parties involved. They function as a form of (inflated) attention currency.
ENJOY it, but UNDERSTAND it.
We learned LY & declined to play in the “payola” for clubs/friends in exchange for “praise evals” from “certified evaluators” (AKA first job new journalism grads who have Zero 🏀IQ) masked as a “College Recruiting” event and the attempt to cover this year was to dismiss parents

@Texas29s
The idea of “if you can play they will find you”…..is one of the biggest fallacies that exists in recruiting. Yes, if you are HIGH level they will find you. But once you get past that….the waters become increasingly muddled with 100s and 100s of extremely similar athletes; both from a talent and academic perspective. After the initial few hundred….it is very similar and many are often “not found”.
Congrats to PHX Legacy Elite for going 3-0 to win their pool in the highest 15U Division at Nike New Orleans‼️
They play in the Championship game tomorrow on Court 38 at 12:15🔥
