A high school coach once asked me why one of his players wasn't getting recruiting attention.
My first question was simple:
"What's his HUDL link?"
The response:
"We don't have one yet. He's still working on it."
That answer told me everything.
College coaches can't recruit a player they can't evaluate.
And once they do click on your film, you have a short window to hold their attention.
The best plays need to be first.
Speed. Explosion. Range. Savvy.
Whatever separates you from the crowd needs to show up early and often.
The video needs to be organized.
No film = no evaluation.
Poorly organized film = coaches move on.
Your highlight tape is often your first impression.
Make it count.
Must watch American movies before the 250th:
The Patriot
Saving Private Ryan
Remember the Titans
Top Gun
Independence Day
American Sniper
Lone Survivor
Ford v Ferrari
Miracle
What did i miss?
Highschool Lineman don’t let these college coaches break your spirit about being a 6”1 - 6”2 center . Parker Brailsford was Alabama’s center last year just got drafted in the 4th round! I’ve fighting this fight with college coaches for 10 years now . Especially if he 6”1 with long arms he can play in the nfl. So I know damn well he can play on your damn college team !
