Recruiting Advice we give to our players!!!

1. No matter who they are, and at what level, call every coach who calls you back!

2. Don't "Chase" offers. We are not in the "COLLECTING BUSINESS." There is no race to see how many you can get, it's about finding a great FIT for you to spend the next 4/5 years of your life. Build relationships with all the staffs recruiting you!

3. Be yourself, don't tell coaches what you think they want to hear, tell them what you think. If at any point a college is out of the running, they are owed a call, and thank them for their time/effort.

4. If you are a D3 kid, be happy being a D3 kid. The level of basketball played in the UMAC/WIAC/MIAC is very very good. Same for a D2 kid. Don't chase scholarship offers that aren't coming.

5. Work every single day on becoming a better son, brother, friend, student, and basketball player. Being well rounded makes you more recruitable, and makes you much more fun to coach!!!
