Year 2 is in the books for Nashed Athlete Advising and I couldn’t be more thankful for all of our current/former families, & coaches that give me the ability to do what I enjoy every day.
The success that we’ve had with NAA is a culmination of the effort, intentionality, & persistence that these guys have shown on a daily basis. Very proud and excited for all of these dudes who have rolled with the punches in an evolving recruiting landscape.
In 2 years we've had 68 4-year college commitments, with 50 of those being at the D1 level and NAA guys represented at schools in 17 different states.
High school, JC, & transfer players… if you are hungry to be great and not afraid to get after it, DM or email me. Let’s get to work.
The day that I got my name called in the MLB Draft was one of the coolest moments of my life. It was the same feeling that I experienced when I was offered a scholarship to play for my hometown D1 program. Feelings of accomplishment, relief, & additional motivation to become an elite player.
Fast forward a few years, and I was very fortunate to wind up on the giving end of things — as a D1 recruiting coordinator creating those same opportunities for recruits. Being able to impact a player and his family was, in many ways, the most rewarding part of the job.
I launched Nashed Athlete Advising (NAA) a little over a year ago with the mission to continue to make a difference for families — through honest, relationship-driven communication, using my own unique lens & network as a former D1 player and coach.
In year one, we had 29 college commitments (24 D1, 3 D2, 2 D3) all over the country with many more coming. I’ve had a blast creating new relationships with phenomenal players, parents, and coaches.
I’m fired up to see what year 2 brings for our NAA clients!
High school, JC, & transfer players… let’s connect and get to work on finding your next home. DM or email me.
I am very excited to announce my commitment to play division 1 baseball at Cal State Northridge. First I want to thank God for giving me these gifts, talents, and abilities to play at the next level. I also want to thank my friends, family, and coaches for supporting me.
2025 RHP Forest Zelmer - @FZelmerBaseball has made some big strides this winter/spring. The 6'4" 170lb arm at Valley Christian HS (San Jose, CA) has made a velo jump now sitting 86-88 t90 this Spring. There is a TON of upside in his frame and delivery. I don't see why this isn't a 95 mph arm at some point in his college career, IMO.
Forest won't turn 18 until the summer after his senior HS season.
