Year 2 is in the books for Nashed Athlete Advising and I couldn’t be more thankful for all of our current/former families, & coaches that give me the ability to do what I enjoy every day. The success that we’ve had with NAA is a culmination of the effort, intentionality, & persistence that these guys have shown on a daily basis. Very proud and excited for all of these dudes who have rolled with the punches in an evolving recruiting landscape. In 2 years we've had 68 4-year college commitments, with 50 of those being at the D1 level and NAA guys represented at schools in 17 different states. High school, JC, & transfer players… if you are hungry to be great and not afraid to get after it, DM or email me. Let’s get to work.

Be careful with what you read online. This is how players end up making uneducated decisions and end up getting hosed… then scramble trying to find a new place to play. It is standard for schools to automatically cancel aid agreements when players enter the transfer portal. Do not expect to just mosey on into the transfer portal, test the waters, and come back with the same athletic aid and relationship that you had with your coaching staff. If you have leverage, it might be a different story. But those guys are 1 percenters. If you’re an average or below average player and you go into the portal, don’t be surprised when your coach says “adios” and moves on to find someone better. Entering the portal often does force you to leave, unless you want to come back to school and just be a student.
Coach Drew's Recruiting Service - 28 yrs. exp.@coachdrew94

📌 Step‑by‑Step: How to Enter the NCAA Transfer Portal 1. Tell your coach or compliance office you want to enter the portal You can tell: Head coach Assistant coach Compliance officer Athletic academic advisor You do not need permission — you only need to notify them. 2. Compliance is required to enter your name within 48 hours This is an NCAA rule. Once you notify them, they must: Log into the NCAA Transfer Portal system Enter your name Upload your contact info Upload your academic status 3. You become “active” in the portal immediately Once entered, coaches from other schools can see: Your name Your position Your school Your contact info Your academic status Your eligibility You are now officially recruitable. 4. You can talk to any coach in the country Once you’re in: Coaches can call you You can call them You can take visits You can receive offers You are treated like a free agent. 5. Your current school can still keep you Entering the portal does not force you to leave. You can withdraw your name and stay if you want.

Emmet is tooled up and has played every premium position on the field. Pretty cool when you’ve got an athlete that can do it all on defense. 15 bags on the year too! + arm strength… and physicality. @DesmondEmmet

@leftcoastbsbl 100%... The non-baseball specific criteria is often under-valued. Financial burden, quality of the degree, etc.

I agree with a lot of your points. I just think with how expensive college has become that if you’re taking out 50k in loans for a Juco guy or 100k for 4 years for a HS guy, it’s a crazy amount of money when you look at the reality of what the job market is. I know guys that said if I’m looking at say Eastern lllinois or Valpo, I’m most likely not getting drafted, call a spade a spade, I’d rather play in the CCAA or just go to the local Cal State and get my degree than pay that much to have no guarantee of playing time and set myself in debt. It’s crappy that it’s the reality, but those judgments and decisions have been going on for a long time. Playing baseball in college is getting to the point where the middle class is getting squeezed out because the upper class can always pay and there are so many grants and scholies for lower income kids that it’s a calculated decision of is it worth it? It’s not as easy as am I good enough to play here. I wish it was.

Got off the phone with a mid-major D1 coach and this one is worth sharing... We were talking about a few players and discussing the quality of baseball across the board in D1. He mentioned that high school and JC players need to open their eyes to how good the talent is. I'll paraphrase what he said: "We faced two teams this season that are projected last in their conferences (below average conferences), and both of them were good! We faced a Sunday guy who was up to 95, Saturday guy was 90-93 with multiple pitches... they were old and physical. There are too many players on the west coast that close off the idea of going to mid-major out of state programs and the funny thing is they probably wouldn't even play at those schools!" Straight from the horses mouth. Do with this what you may. Let me break it down for you... 🔽 There are ~43 west coast D1's. Only 15% of D1 baseball programs are on the west coast. Then you decide to eliminate 10 of those programs because they "aren't very good" and you "really want to play at a winning program". You're now down to 33 schools. 15-20 of them are Power 5 or top mid-major caliber programs and they can get high end JC players, proven transfer portal guys, & big time high school prospects. You're not good enough, or not proven enough yet. Now you're down to 13-18 schools. Of those 13-18 schools, 7 of them don't have a need for your position. They're returning multiple starters. Now you're down to 6-11 schools. Let's say, in a miracle, ALL 6-11 of these schools know about you, have seen you, and like you... They still have to like you MORE than the other guys they are also currently recruiting at your position. You play a corner INF/OF spot or profile as a relief pitcher. There are A TON of quality JC, portal, and HS players around the country that play non-premium positions. They are fighting for the same opportunities as you and may even be willing to come with no scholarship money. Does it make sense now? You're likely not as good as you think you are - in reference to every other player that is also available. There are guys just like you, or better, all over the country. Some of them have 3 more years of experience than you do. I know this is a very general hypothetical... and it doesn't apply to all. But I've seen this play out in real time, on MANY occasions. So what is my final point here? Sit down with your family and think long and hard about what is important. If baseball is the #1 priority and you're not a legitimate 1% type player, then you better start expanding your list of target schools, conferences, divisions, etc. If baseball is not the #1 priority (very smart decision for most players), then you better start prioritizing the other factors that matter most to you in your college search. ROI of the degree, cost of attendance, do they offer your intended major, etc... And yes, this is referencing D1, but every level of college baseball has talent right now. There are old, physical, experienced players at every level. The same concept applies across the board.
