Ask Coach Taylor – How Do I Find Out Where I Stand?

November 18th, 2009 - by Adam Diorio

Coach Taylor – How do I find out where I stand on a coach’s recruiting list?

ASK!  You have to communicate with coaches throughout the entire recruiting process but especially once you have developed an initial relationship.  This relationship will allow you the opportunity to simply ask a coach via email, over the phone or in person where you stand on their list.  If you are talking to a coach for the very first time, asking where you stand might not be the best time for that question.

Probably the best time to ask the question would be after you have received an evaluation about your ability so the coach can give you the best possible answer.

Send your recruiting questions to askcoachtaylor@ncsasports.org

If you would like to speak with a NCSA Recruiting Coordinator about your personal recruiting situation, call 866-579-6272

  6. Mitch Shaw Says:

    Don’t sit back and wait to find out where you stand. You got to put yourself out there
    and some times the answer you get isn’t the one you want but that is one less college you have to worry about on your list and it makes your college choice a lot easier.

    Trey, add 100 lbs, and keep your forty time at 5.0 or better. You’ll be a fine O-lineman at a D2 school… Even better, get your academics up to a 3.5 or better and your ACT in the high 20s, and focus on an academic scholarship. St. Mary’s College in California gives every student who aqualifies about halfthe tuition for that private school. If you can get in to Stanford and your parents make less than $100,000 per year, your uition is covered. Keep in mind that, according to the NCAA site, fewer than 8% of athletes who play high school sports play in college. Of the scholarshp money available today, welll more than 90% is through academics…
