Recruited Athlete Pivots After Receiving An Unexpected Deny
You are NOT going to want to miss this story from a recruited athlete.
Amar had been working toward his goal of being recruited by his dream college since freshman year. But then.... the unthinkable happened.
It’s a tale of hard work, suspense, intrigue, sadness and joy… Watch or listen to Amar and his mom tell the story ONLY an athlete can tell.
Amar’s Tip: CAST A WIDE NET!! When you put yourself out there, reach out to the coaches and get on their radar, the coaches will reach out to you. Maintain relationships even with coaches at schools that aren’t your top choices- you never know... (jump to 7:40 for this clip)
Mom’s Tip: Read the ‘fine print’ with coaches’ ‘offers,’ make sure ALL forms are filled out!!! → NEVER make the mistake of not applying to other schools, even with special ‘pep’ recruitment offers (you’ll catch this at 14:45)
