Coach Taylor – When is the right time to ask a coach, “Where do I stand on their recruiting list?”

You have to ask some preliminary questions to coaches before asking where you stand on their list.

1) Ask them if they have seen you play? If not, do they need a game schedule or a higlight video?  If they have seen you play…

2) Ask them if you’re an ideal recruit for their program?  If not, what will it take to get on their recruiting list?  If you are on their list already…

3)  Ask them how many (your position) they are looking at for (your graduation class)?  If they are looking for someone like you…

4) Ask them where you stand in terms of priority on their recruiting list?  The coach may say that they need to see you play more or need additional film for further evaluation…or they might let you know you are near the top!

Just remember, you cannot ask the final question until they have evaluated you as a player.
