I want to qualify that this quiz is intended to give a general idea for the average recruit based upon experiences of several recruits (from 5 stars to mid 3 stars). There are always exceptions! So there is nothing scientific nor definitive here. Everyone can chart their own course, but at least some of these questions and responses can help give one a sense of where they may stand with a college heading towards June 15th. (the highest point total reflects the experience that the 5 star recruits went through upon reflection of their college choice) I encourage others who have gone through the recruiting process in the last 2-3 years to add any questions that, upon reflection of their experience, were signs of interest from colleges. Given that, I know Oklahoma has already started hitting the road to visit gym and potential recruits. I am sure other programs have too.
Answer Yes/No (Yes count the points, No = 0 points)
Score Key:
10-8.5: You are probably a prime recruit for this school and have a good chance at a scholarship offer on first call
6-8: You definitely have interest from college, may or may not have calls set up for June 15th but will be in active communication.
<5.5: You are on the college's radar, but probably not one of their first recruits. Keep lines of communication open, you will need to be assertive in your recruitment process.
Excited and hopeful for everyone facing the upcoming recruiting cycle. Be proactive! Be informed! Be prepared!
