      If my 2025 has no D1 or D2 offers at this point is it time to move on? Realistically speaking, not just the random exceptions. She isn’t looking at top D1s but even the lower ones aren’t offering.

        Are there less offers than normal years? Perhaps look at D3? Hope she finds a good spot

          Not enough info to answer you. Some info needed: What club are you at? Are you getting good exposure? Are you targeting appropriately? Have you spoken to your coach or DOC about these questions?

            Really depends. I’d stay the course if it’s important to her…but maybe time to reassess targets. P5’s are (mostly) done, but next tier down is evaluating what’s left. I know plenty of 2024’s that committed to Ivy’s or other lower D1’s and D2’s in the spring. It’s not a bad exercise to have a conversation about what’s important and adjust as necessary. If club coaches are available it would be a worthwhile conversation with them to evaluate what realistic targets should be. If she has an absolute favorite or two then look into their camps, plan on attending and let coaches know your intentions. It’ll work out, be patient and realistic.

              Agree not enough info. Are academics an issue? That can get you weeded out. if they aren’t talking to you they aren’t interested or haven’t gotten to their name on list while looking at other players. Still time.

                Take the time now over break and have her reassess her targets both soccer wise and academically. Also review her video/resume and "cover" letter she's sending to coaches. There is still time and those programs may still reach out (they usually make offers to their top picks for then work down their list), but she should broader her reach

                  Transfer Portal seems to be wreaking havoc on the mid to lower tier D1s for 2025s. My D had conversations with schools and all of a sudden theyve started talking about looking at the transfer portal and then reassessing in January. These were schools that reached out on June 15th and she's been talking to for months. The portal is causing issues pretty much across the board not just soccer but all sports for men & women college teams.

                    Academics aren’t an issue. Getting a lot of replies but always “send us more, keep in touch.” but never let’s get on the phone or come for a visit. Have seen her at showcases and camps. I know the radio silence ones aren’t interested but several are giving mixed signals. Rather not say club but it is a club that sends kids to D1/D2 teams (and she isn’t targeting P5). Getting discouraged so I’m trying to give her reasonable advice but not false hope. Appreciative of the feedback.

                      I would ask your coach or club’s DOC (or any advocate you may have with the school) to reach out to your top choices and inquire about where your child stands in the recruiting process. As others have said, it may be the schools are waiting for the transfer portal to shake out and see where the money sits. Or where their top recruits are going. But at least you’ll have an idea of who to really hit with correspondence and who to wave a sad goodbye to. Still getting communication is a good thing though.

                        Not OP but same boat. What is the advice when a coach has been in contact since June 15, gave great feedback after ID, scheduled unofficial visit, watched more games but suddenly won't move forward or says they will give you an update but then doesn't contact again? Do you encourage the player to text again or is it better to leave it alone and not seem desperate?

                          Again, your coach or DOC should step in at this point to contact target school and give some clarity.

                              If in ECNL the January showcase is a great excuse to reach out to coaches again with schedules without seeming desperate. Coaches have their lists and work their way down them as players accept or reject offers. Then there's transfers. It's nerve racking for sure but it doesn't mean it's over. Keep at it and see if you missed any appropriate targets

                                I think its way too early to give up on D1. Most schools below 150 RPI have no commits yet. https://twitter.com/ImYouthSoccer/st...34629729591306
                                There are still 12 or so HC jobs open. I would say if you're not in talks by April, then it's time to move on.
