@KatyISDAthletic @CincoHoops Congratulations!!

Ive worked with players with Major D1 Offers that probably shouldn't have them and i've worked with players with NO D1 Offers that should have 10 Moral of the story: Recruitment isn't fair, but no one cares, work harder and make the most of EVERY opportunity💯

Please congratulate our All-District 19-6A selection @tureau_drew! #CPOE #Ubuntu #LEAVEOURMARK #txhsfb

Ive been tapping in with D3 & D2 football programs the last few days. Most of the programs I've had a rapport with over the years have been P4 & G5. HSFB prospects & parents please humble yourself we are in a whole new territory 💡.

After a very competitive football season we want to congratulate our 2024 19-6A Special Teams MVP!

Congratulations to the athletes who were named 19-6A All District in Football!

RECRUITs: The FBS is currently in a recruiting "DEAD PERIOD” running from.. Mon. Dec 2nd to Sun. Dec 8th During this time: 🚫 No campus visits 🚫 No official/unofficial visits 🚫 No camps ✅ Unlimited calls and texts/DMs to the classes of '25 & '26 **Important Dates:** ✍️ HS/JUCO Signing Day | Wed. Dec 4th 🔄 Transfer Portal Opens | Mon. Dec 9th #Recruiting101

Yo HSFB players. Find you a good HS coach. Go play for his program. Go to class, get A's & B's, study for ACT/SAT, be a model student, a respectful student. Football scholarships are now plan B. Make sure you are a 5 star student first. It's treacherous in these recruiting streets now.

Recruits: Remember, with the new roster cuts coming up, colleges will be taking longer to see who is staying and who is hitting the portal. This will flow down from FBS to D3. Look at this as a positive. You have some more time to get your film to schools, fill out questionnaires, and visit the campus. Take advantage of this added time.

FBS rosters being capped at 105 is about to push even more talent down to lower levels. This isn’t being talked about enough.

Prospects, I understand you wanting to go play Division 1️⃣…. The truth of the matter is if you don’t have a ton of D1 offers at this moment, you should be connecting with D2 and D3 schools just to build up traction because nobody wants you until somebody wants you in recruiting 🗣️🤷🏾‍♂️ Recruiting is like high school dating , nobody likes you until you start dating the prettiest girl at school. Once you do though, every other girl there will want to date you🏁 What is more attractive a kid with 5 offers or the kid with none⁉️

If we offered you and you are posting offers after offers after offers, (that’s great), but beware of what’s happening under your nose.

@CoachBenMiles Hello

RECRUITS! Getting recruited is HARD. Recruiting is also HARD! Do yourself a favor tonight, before you cut on Call of Duty, make an updated highlight! At this point, you should have a: 1-4 Game HL Mid-Season HL 1-8 Game HL Regular Season HL MARKET YOUR BRAND! #GoldStandard

There is NO luck in recruiting‼️ You get recruited based on: 1️⃣Your talent 🌟 2️⃣ Your grades 🏫 3️⃣ How many coaches know about you and have evaluated your film 🎥 You aren't getting recruited because of one of those things. The sad part is it’s usually #️⃣3️⃣which is the reason most prospects aren’t getting recruited. Nobody knows you 🫨

Our initial evaluations are FREE⭐️ You will be evaluated by a me and a former D1 FBS Recruiter. If you make the cut, you get put on a private board that I send to D1 Coaches regularly. FOR FREE. Why? Cuz I care about the players and actually want to send coaches legit ball players. Yes, we have a paid service if you do make the cut too, but you still will get value out of the free application if you’re a baller with a 3.0+ GPA. Pinned tweet to apply. 2026-2028🏈 @5StarFBRecruits

Alot of these college programs are so caught up in recruiting popularity & size that they are forgetting this is football. You gotta have dawgs over all things! Every year with the @trillstarsdna we recruit dawgs idc about rankings & stars. Ask some of those teams we played how that worked out lol.
