[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How revealing is “interest” emails to your club from coaches?

I hear some schools just really don’t reveal interest to anyone.

Unlike football, who can make “offers” anytime, lax can’t but football offers are not actually offers, it does not mean they will accept your commitment after an offer. So to me interest is like soft offers. They may have many kids get this feedback.

As a parent I like knowing which schools have interest so I can do homework on them.

June and July interest is pretty meaningless. Late July / early August feedback is a bit more telling, since lists tend to be shorter but still nothing to bank on. For most schools, coaching staffs don't sit around and formally talk about recruits until August. So if one coach really likes you, you may be on a list, but the head coach could still be looking for something else so you never really had a chance. We've found that smaller school lists tend to be a bit more accurate since once you get outside the top 3 conferences, head coaches are doing a majority of the recruiting themselves.

In my older daughter's experience, the best indicators of interest ahead of 9/1 are  a) pulling transcripts in sportsrecruits (since it can't be done anonymously) b) actual attendance at games and c) watching all of your film, not just most recent. A and C  usually don't happen until late August.

Don't worry about attending August prospect days for schools who may be interested. If a prospect day is a big deal for a school, they will let your club coach know. Most don't care that much, especially if you play on a top team they have watched play 12 times since November.[/quote]
