Recruiting Is a Process, Not a Moment
How coaches evaluate athletes over time, not in highlights
TL;DR
Recruiting is a long evaluation process, not a single event. Coaches watch patterns over time — consistency, coachability, steady improvement. One great play gets attention, but trust is built through repeated behavior.
Key Takeaways
- Coaches evaluate patterns, not peaks
- One big game gets attention but doesn't earn trust
- Early pressure to perform backfires
- Recruiting rewards athletes who stack good days
