NCAA Recruiting Surveys

[PowerForce]

A couple of times a year I send a survey to all NCAA DI programs. I do these surveys mostly because I want to know, but the answers .. especially the comments .. give you pretty good insight into how DI Coaches feel.

Just sent this out last night and there's only responses from 30 out of 300ish schools, but there's a couple things that surprised me:

1. Coaches either care a lot about High School Ball or could care less, no middle ground. Better ask before you bail.
2. Skills video's actually matter .. I'm kinda shocked. Better make your appt.
3. 98.4% of all DI Recruits are hitting Power Force Balls and using Power Force nets .. I'm kidding.

If you take the time to look at this material, read the Coaches comments concerning facemasks. It was a real eye opener for me.

The Devil is In the Details- all parents should read the comments about the current recruiting process

I'm trying to help out one of the Coaches that contributed information to my DI Coaches Survey. This survey is for DI Players Only.

Brittanie Talley, See 2015 Bio_, is working towards her Masters and her research is based on DI Softball Recruiting from a Player's perspective. Her premise is "it's harmful to young athletes to commit prior to the summer before their senior year of high school".

If you're, or you have a daughter who is, a current or past DI Softball athlete it would be great if you could take a couple of minutes to fill out her survey. I think we all believe this an important topic to, at the very least, explore.

The link no longer works for me too, so I'm using a cached copy of the page.
