Inside Scoop

PUT ME IN, COACH is an essential guidebook for parents and their student-athletes who want to be recruited to compete in athletics at the college level.

Most student-athletes and their parents venture into college sports recruiting with little or no experience. Because of limited roster spots, only a handful of high school athletes will play their sport competitively in college and even fewer will get NCAA or NAIA scholarships. For your child to be one of them, you need a game plan, and the earlier you start, the better.

So if you are the parent of a student-athlete who is better than most in high school athletics, but college coaches aren’t lining up at your door, you will find PUT ME IN, COACH indispensable.

Here is a sampling of what you will learn by reading this book:

How to market your child so coaches take notice

How to get money from any school, even those that don’t give athletic scholarships

How to identify the colleges that are the right fit for your child

How to understand recruiting from the coaches’ point of view

How to make the right impression and get the most out of campus visits

PUT ME IN, COACH includes 20 true stories that bring to life the many situations you’ll find yourself in along the recruiting trail.

You’ll encounter the personal observations and advice of 40 college coaches from different schools and different divisions.

In short, the strategies in PUT ME IN, COACH put you right where you need to be ― in the driver’s seat!

“Put Me In, Coach is a must-read for anyone who seeks to unravel the complexities facing high school athletes in their quest to compete at the college level. Best of all, the book promotes and elevates the ultimate goal of every school counselor working with college-bound students...finding a fit!”
