“To be successful, the thing people have in common-they realize they don’t really have a choice.
There is one way.
The right way, the hard way, there are no shortcuts."
Success doesn’t give you options.
It gives you standards and you either meet them or you don’t.
Way to go Grace (1st team All State) , Lily, and Brennan!

Recruiting gameplan.
1: Go to school, work really hard.
2: Commit everything you can to your HS program.
3: Have schools come in to see you.
Or… burn thousands of $’s chasing exposure and complaining about the portal.

There is a finite balance between being seen in person and taking the summer to prep for explosive film on Friday nights
Film v camps: Hot topic currently. I think the winning money is clearly on Friday night film right now.

Another reminder this year to kids going to camps:
Seeing some kids "camp schedule" list looking like a grocery list of 15 items. Schools are just taking your money.
If you are a high school player right now looking to do camps:
DO NOT GO TO 10 camps. Go to 3-4 camps and space them out and choose schools that have shown you the most interest at this point.
Keep the main thing...the MAIN THING! Be with your team in the summer. Prepare for a great junior or senior year. PUT IT ON TAPE!!
Pick 1 at the very most 2 mega camps
Pick 1 "Prove you can play there" camp.
Pick 1 " School has shown you the most interest.

Stuff's boring, right? Doing indy's and EDD's are boring, but people who make it to the NFL get really, REALLY good at the "boring" stuff.
