Two Common Mistakes. Perhaps the two most common mistakes aspiring athletes make regarding recruiting is waiting too long to learn how the process works and then not taking action on this knowledge. For example, kids regularly wait until they are seniors in high school before seriously thinking about college recruiting, or doing something about it. This is a huge mistake. If a good student-athlete expects to have a chance to play at the college level he or she needs to prepare, academically and personally, for this opportunity.

Recruiting - the Once-in-a-lifetime Opportunity. Some things in life can be attempted, failed at, relearned and tried again. It happens every day. Kids learning to ride bicycles get on and fall off numerous times before eventually one day hopping on and confidently heading down the street. The first time you make the mistake of mixing in a dark shirt with your white clothing in the washing machine is a lesson you learn from and avoid the next time you do laundry. Miss a ground ball, free throw or free kick? Scratch on the long jump, double fault or jump off sides? Not to worry, another chance will happen shortly. But, in recruiting you get one chance. That's it - high school kids are recruited once in their lives and they only get one chance to get it right or the opportunity is lost forever. (Last three announcements are from the NSR webpage)
