Originally posted by Unregistered View PostWhat does being recruited mean in boys soccer? I have not seen any college coaches at our games. My guess is that the kid (or parent) filled out the questionnaire on the college website. They received the automatic reply thanking them for the information. Now they are being recruited.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostWhy do TS posters feel the need to pick the worst scenarios and belittle kids? This player plays high level club, does showcases and has gone on college visits and met with coaches. No one gets recruited just from high school any longer. If you see a college coach at a regular season game it's because he's watching a local player he's talking to and it fit into his busy schedule. A few watch state finals, that's it.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostWe get a ton of emails from ID camps and coaches who run ID camps. Does that mean we are getting recruited. There are some other clubs worth mentioning with regard to being recruited. FSA lists their players and the majority of boys go to D3 schools. I dont call that being recruited. I call that you picked the school and told the coach you were coming. they are happy to have you. My point is if you are truly being recruited there is no way a high school coach in CT would be sitting you on the bench.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI am not disparaging any D3 schools. I am sure the top schools only take the best of the best. My point it that they dont heavily recruit average kids in CT. And if they are recruiting a kid his coach would not be able to keep him on the bench.
At the top those are D1 caliber players who went for the education. If you are getting invites without talking to the coach you are a checkbook. You have to get yourself noticed and contact coaches. The only way a coach goes to a HS game is to watch his recruit, the only way you get noticed is if you dismantle his recruit

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostCan you imagine how hard it must be to recruit soccer players at non-fully funded D1 and D2 programs that are not great schools? There is so little money anyways on the boys side.
