Episode notes

Everyone talks about size. Height. Weight. Frame. But what about mindset?

In this episode, we unpack the real recruiting conversations. Does being 6’3” guarantee a D1 offer, or can being an absolute dawg be enough? We share what we’ve seen from both ends. The freak athletes, the undersized kids who outwork everyone, and the ones who play with heart, grit, and no excuses.

If you’re a player, a parent, or a coach trying to guide someone through the recruiting grind, this one’s a must. Because talent opens doors, but mentality decides who walks through.
