True Story:
Prospect Had 3 D1 Offers, all pulled their offer today bc they signed guys ahead of him on their board. He declined to speak with Non-D1 schools now he has 0 offers.
Recruiting world is harsh & u need to conside all opportunities.
🏀 Hoopers!
In recruiting you have very little control on who offers you a scholarship. Every year colleges only have so many scholarships available and within that limit we will only need certain positions.
💪🏽 Work hard and put yourself in front of as many people as possible!
Thank you for saying this! This year we have 6 guys graduating. All 6 earned full basketball scholarships. Sent guys to the Big East, WAC, Big Sky to name some conferences.
I am thankful I get to coach this group of young men and be part of there journey. They have created a true brotherhood here in Thatcher.
