The best college football prospects are the high school kids who already act like mature college players. They do what they have to do. They get their work done. They work hard. They're coachable. They're great students and great teammates. "Champions behave like champions before they're champions." - Bill Walsh

A college coach can LOVE your film and still NOT offer you.
Why?
Maybe you're not a positional need. Maybe they already have three players ahead of you on their board. Maybe you don't fit their scheme.
Recruiting is bigger than talent.

TGIM is back!
You don't have to love every part of the process, but you owe yourself enough to give the opportunity your best while you're there.
Where in your life have you been physically showing up but mentally checking out?

Champions have an exceptional will. But they’re also exceptionally willing.
More willing to do the extra work.
More willing to make sacrifices
More willing to accept hard coaching.
More willing to hold themselves to the standard when nobody is watching.
Everybody wants the result. Champions accept the responsibility.
Your will means little until your willingness proves it.

Bears dominant in 50-24 win at UVA Wise.

It was at this moment I became a @JalenHurts fan forever. At 19 years old he was asked one of the most difficult questions of his career - all I could hear is “after going 11-1, how did it feel to get pulled at the second half and watch someone else steal your glory” and his answer was beautiful. Ultimate team guy. Need more people like this in the world.

I’d say 99% of people that say “just go JUCO and transfer up”..
Genuinely are ignorant to the inner workings of college athletics.

This is a MASSIVE MONEY GRAB taking advantage of parents and kids. They should be ashamed of themselves.

We might get our first $-star athlete
1.04M kids played HS football last season. About 6,600 held a Rivals star rating… roughly 0.6%.
That's not a talent gap. It's a capacity gap. Our scouts have always focused on FBS prospects, and FCS, D-II, NAIA and D-III kids rarely get their film watched.
Rivals Recruits puts the same scouts, held to the same standards, on more of that film.
You can pay for an evaluation. You can't pay for the result.
Great resource and link for all college coaches and scouts. More opportunities for athletes.

The player here visited Georgia State and Virginia Tech this season as a sophomore and received an offer from UAB as a freshman last year.
I think his recruitment would've been just fine.
We'll never have enough scouts to watch 1M high school football players a year. Rivals Recruits gives anyone a real shot at being seen.
Ex: 2029 QB Colton Dabkowski bought an evaluation. Rivals scout @CodyBellaire spent hours on his film and talking with his coaches, then shared the eval with college staffs.
A few days later Tulane offered.
Est. Tulane scholarship: ~$390K over 4 years
Rivals evaluation: $499
We want every recruiting staff, from FBS to D-III, to find more talent, and every athlete who's earned it to get found. No one should go unseen.

I had 50+ Offers With ZERO help from recruiting services. I didn’t need some random from Rivals, ESPN, 247 who has never played football to evaluate my film. If you can ball, they will find you!! Biggest Scam Ever!!

He won’t tell you the kid mentioned, ALREADY HAD OFFERS. Disgusting money grab from a company that couldn’t care less about if you play CFB! Spend your money on UNIVERSITY PROSPECT CAMPS, UNOFFICIAL VISITS & TRAINING. Offers are earned from your tape, grades & character!
