Barry's Recruiting Tips Part One 20 Facts About The Football Highlight Tape Volume 2: Items 6 - 10 |
We hope to answer commonly asked questions regarding how to make a highlight video for college recruiters. This includes tips on what to actually put on the video and how to dispense the highlight. Let's face it the goal of a successful highlight tape is to allow as many college coaches and recruiting services as possible to view the student-athlete. Though the National Underclassmen can never guarantee that your son is a definite DI prospect we can guide you with simple tips that will increase the likelihood that your video will be viewed.

6. Make sure your highlight, whether made at school or professionally, can be used by any recruiting service. Avoid using television clips or having someone make your highlight that will not give permission to anyone to use it free of charge. Let's face it the more recruiting services that can legally use your highlight drastically increases the number of college coaches that will have access to it.
7. The internet is a wonderful tool when it comes to video. I highly recommend that once your video is ready load it up on YouTube. Why? Now you can easily dispense your video via email with an attached link to as many college coaches and recruiting services at little or no cost.
8. Again make sure that the video that is uploaded onto YouTube can be used by all recruiting services such as Scout.com, Rivals.com, Scouts Inc., Maxpreps, and of course the National Underclassmen Combine.
9. If you decide to put any music to go along with your highlights keep it clean. If something is inappropriate in the song this could reflect on your character.
10. Make sure when you send emails to coaches or recruiting services you have a specific name of someone at that organization. Do not just blindly send videos out because they seldom if ever get looked at.
