Recruiting profile
Social media for freshmen & sophomores
Coaches will look you up. Make what they find quick to read, honest and clean.
Quick dos
- Use X as your main recruiting account. It's where college coaches and programs are most active.
- Host your full skills video on YouTube or Hudl, and pin your best, most recent video.
- List only verified numbers (varsity, travel, Perfect Game, PBR or another verified event), with the source and date.
- Follow the programs on your target list and their coaches.
Quick don'ts
- No drama, arguing, complaining about umpires or teammates, or profanity. Coaches also see what you like and repost.
- No Little League, middle school or inflated radar numbers.
- Don't tag 30 schools on one post.
