Schools of Interest
Your school list should include the program name, division level, position fit, and your athlete's genuine level of interest. URecruit HQ gives each school a status so you always know where things stand.
The college football recruiting process spans years and involves dozens of schools, conversations, and decisions. URecruit HQ gives families a structured workspace to manage all of it.
Without a system, recruiting information gets scattered across texts, emails, and memory. Schools fall through the cracks. Follow-up windows get missed. And when a coach asks directly — "How serious are you about our program?" — families aren't always ready with a clear answer.
URecruit HQ is not a solution to those problems. It is the place where you build the solution yourself — by tracking what matters, reviewing it regularly, and making decisions based on what you actually know.
A complete plan isn't about tracking everything — it's about tracking the right things consistently.
Your school list should include the program name, division level, position fit, and your athlete's genuine level of interest. URecruit HQ gives each school a status so you always know where things stand.
Log every interaction with each program — questionnaires submitted, emails exchanged, calls made, texts received. Over time, this log tells you which relationships are actually developing.
Track unofficial and official visits, junior days, and on-campus interactions. These are often turning points in a recruiting relationship and deserve their own record.
Connect your camp schedule to your school list. Each camp your athlete attends should have a reason tied to a specific program or level of play you're targeting.
NCAA contact windows, evaluation periods, signing day timelines, and your own family decision points. Missing these is avoidable with a calendar built around recruiting.
Know what phase of the process your athlete is in — early visibility, active outreach, evaluation, or decision-making — and what the most important next actions are.
The workspace is designed for short, regular sessions — not a one-time setup that collects dust.
Build your school list
Start with the programs your family is genuinely interested in. Add division level, position need, and an initial status. Update it as the process develops.
Set up your athlete profile
Add position, graduation year, height, weight, and academic information. Having this in one place makes filling out questionnaires faster and more consistent.
Connect your camp schedule
Add upcoming camps and link them to the schools on your list. This shows whether your exposure plan is aligned with your recruiting targets.
Log activity regularly
After every coach interaction — a follow, a questionnaire, a text, a call — add it to the log. Five minutes of tracking prevents months of confusion.
Review as a family
Set aside time each month to review your school list, update statuses, and decide where to focus. The workspace is designed for both athlete and parent to use together.
This takes effort. URecruit HQ does not automate recruiting or handle outreach for you. Families who get the most out of the platform are the ones who use it consistently — logging activity when it happens, reviewing their school list regularly, and treating the workspace as a live document rather than a one-time setup.
