Be Humble, Be Coachable, Have a positive attitude. Intangibles matter. Skills can be developed but you cant teach work ethic and leadership.

[@boeldridge2915]

Perfect

[@Stevohoodnigga11-23]

You can actually teach the leadership qualities and tendencies so the one becomes it, but the root of leadership and work ethic cometh from character itself so the best bet for being a stronger, better and smarter character itself is to study and implement psychology into your life! God Bless!!

Class of 2026 . GOT A RESPONSE FROM BAYLOR!!! I emailed the head coach using these tips and got a personal camp invite by the head coach. Thank you so much. The camp would be $100 but now it’s totally free thanks to you man

[@blakelywinblood3888]

THIS IS SO SMART OMG I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT

[@catching101]

Great, hope it helps!

[@mikebeecroft2777]

Probably the best advice I've seen for contacting a coach. Good stuff Xan

[@catching101]

I appreciate that!

[@jonny3031]

I'm glad only 200 people have watched this. This is hidden gem material. I thought this video would have at least 10,000 views. Shhhh I'll keep it a secret. Lol

[@catching101]

Ha! Glad that you found it helpful!

[@mimsy4431]

this sadly didn't age well

[@yourshyness32]

I'm back watching for a second time. Informative Video!

[@AppleBottomJ]

Also focusing on their team. Like if they win a match, congratulate them. Letting them know you’re interested in them (especially being a good student and athlete).

[@mkcabiles]

I’m a junior in highschool and this past summer I was about to quit hockey because I was always told I would only be doing it for fun, I got asked to play AA after a spring league tourney for fun and fell in love with working to improve (just under 6’ and went from 115 lbs to 145 lbs in a few months not to mention the skills I built) and now I feel late to the program of reaching out and never had the slight thought or advice or talk or anything about recruitment or anything of the sorts. Thank you for this video and as I keep working I’m going to be working on this and a few other things I’ve seen in other videos and such.

[@epabryan4666]

How’s it going brother

[@AMCG81]

Definitely the only video that goes over how to email coaches instead of just what to do. Thank you

[@coachwiggins8821]

Great advice Coach Barksdale! Personalizing the recruiting video! That's next level..thanks coach.

[@DialloKreed]

Ok this just blew me away. We need to go back to the drawing board after seeing this.

[@zaya.88i.s14]

I’m in 8th grade and I am really serious about my future of football and getting a d1 scholarship from my favorite college ASU

[@arizona71189]

Asu super chill , go visit, try and get a hold of athletic advisors and coaches and meet people. If you're actually good enough anyone will give you a shot. CaN always walk on

I’m a freshman in NC and i’m a 6’1 155lbs athlete and I want to start contacting coaches asap.

[@catching101]

Go for it!

[@wiggybobby1717]

You’ve got good size

[@iretundeakinsola5106]

TBH I was expecting a very common method but BOI was I wrong. THIS IS SUCH GREAT ADVICE!!!!!

[@emmanuelcazeau-wagnac9227]

Thank you coach Barksdale for this insightful video! I hope to use it well to help out a few kids in my area 🙏🏾

[@desmondcopeland5922]

It worked !!!!! Thanks man💪🏾💯

Awesome, glad to hear it!

[@alyssaluvzu2127]

Committed ???

[@patrickbarrett4651]

This is great stuff. Great info. Keep it coming.

[@catching101]

Will do...thanks!

[@smokingseabass5450]

When I send this video out, do I attach it onto the email I was already about to send out or do I send the video by itself? Love the content, keep up the good work

[@HOBtheeviltwins]

The fact that he went to ole miss and that they are my dream school is crazy

[@bisforbandz]

Love how u mentioned da sip

[@lukethegoat7653]

Praying hard works too

[@t30rages26]

Great video!!! Will be trying this in the near future

[@catching101]

Great, I hope it helps!

[@G135-y8w]

wow awesome not just for baseball but for basketball and football which I play all 3

[@mrmcswaggypants3936]

This is great, I was just wondering how you send this to a coach, do you email them a link and then attach more stuff in the email?

[@jacksonb2714]

I would guess you would just put on anything that would prevent you from being able to go to a visit but I’m not 100% percent sure either

[@kallrenner1141]

This is brilliant. Thank you!

[@yourshyness32]

Great Info. Thanks.

[@Morant_Solos]

Can I have email coach saban or coach Brian Kelley at ages 12-14

[@xchevdawg329]

Awesome video man. This is a huge help for me

[@Julia-rc6iw]

Would you then just put this introduction video right in front of your highlight video as an international student? Or would you add two links: for one your highlight video and the other one your introduction video.

[@aniyagonzalez_]

I really want to go to Boston University for diving.. but I’m kindaaaaa bad😂💀 I mean I have a school record an all, I’m pretty exceptional, but not like what BU is looking for. I am currently a sophomore so😬😬 idk why I commented this, just thought I would share LMAOAOAO

[@spstudios927]

I’m not for sure but I believe if you have good grades and get enough scholarships to go there, you could do a walk-on tryout. But I have faith in you!!!

[@aniyagonzalez_]

@@spstudios927 thank you❤️ so kind ;(

[@Cywitdashifts]

Jesus loves you so much he died for you give your life to him and ask for forgiveness

[@codyjenkins1356]

Great advice! Thank you!

[@cambaker5506]

Great video! Quick question though. I know coaches usually look for film, So What if I don’t have film at the position I want to play, how do i approach that?

[@DragRouteFishing]

then maybe what you want to play you shouldn’t play

[@tunakurucu]

Thanks a lot! I am a class of 2022 basketball player from Turkey, what should I include in my video? I can’t attend any camp or training for now because I am an International student.

[@G135-y8w]

@Catching101 same for football I'm guessing?

[@deborahmartin1513]

Would max prep and hudI work to attach to the video you are sending to coaches? I know a talented high school football player in my hometown, trying to get him so film out, was trying to help him with contacting coaches.

[@12melissaa]

Great advice!

[@aj551]

I’m stressed man probably emailed almost 3-400 coaches

[@BrendanMurphyLHP]

Thanks. Is it true that coaches only want to see video on KZbin? If that's the case, then other coaches would see your personalized videos, which would be weird. How should this be done without sending the coach an iMovie video attachment embedded, which I heard they won't open bc it takes up too much of their storage.

[@ChrisCannon007]

Awesome video. Thank you!

[@KKHighlights]

Awesome advice

[@WorthGregory]

Great idea 👀 Recruits make sure to hold onto this and use it.

[@eabaseball4462]

Is there any way to send a video to a coach directly from your camera roll or do I have to send a KZbin link

[@johnlow2266]

I really like your video and I have a question. I've been invited to a team baseball prospect camp but school charges 300$ is that normal?

[@arp_tweezie8184]

Yea prospect camps cost

[@evhb2070]

I can give you something what if you 20 years old to play football is it too late for that I haven't played in high School I was trying to when I was in 9th grade but my parents was stopping me so is their any hope that I can go to these tryouts I am about to go to college soon

[@catching101]

I would say it's going to be an uphill battle, but best of luck to you!

[@queenvsev4800]

I’m assuming this would work for basketball as well. When you talk about schedule so you mean the High School schedule or the travel ball schedule?

[@chaseredman2689]

God loves y’all so much he sent Jesus his one and only begotten son to die on the cross for us and are sin so pls just give him his time of day

[@genniferbaston4529]

Do you have any advice were so far behind in this game I didnt go to college and much of her last 3 yrs have been busy and she is so young in her class she will still be 17 when she graduates. We have lots of video of her running but idk how to upload that as its on my phone. I also love your idea of personalizing this and we will most definitely be doing this Senior year here we come.

[@marcosixeighterdurazo4568]

My son play football for cedar city Utah travel team he only 12 but I'm going to start recording his games would it be illegal for college coaches to reach out to me instead of my son to give me tips on what he needs to work on to improve

[@jasonmathieu4850]

I’m a 6’0 Sophomore In Hs playing Basketball and I’m trying to get a scholarship 🙏🙏

[@AdrianPlaysGames]

How’s it going?

[@JaDiorTv]

That’s good my guy I’m a 6’2 junior just receive a scholarship from Kent state and Penn State for basketball

[@JaDiorTv]

All you have to do is go to camps or any showcase where College coaches will be at . Grades at least higher than 3.0! And stay away from bullshi

[@jasonmathieu4850]

@@JaDiorTv can’t I also Email College Coaches and send them highlights as well?

[@squintohighlights]

How can someone from a small state/school get recruited? No one has gone above d3 in my school so I am really discouraged. I lift everyday and focus on grinding to get better

[@itscalebbeck]

I’m in the lowest of the low at high school football, I play 6 man division 2 my towns pop is like 500 so trust me when I say it doesn’t matter when anyone hasn’t gone above d3 if you train hard and remember to train your athleticism you’ll be good. But be mentally ready as well it’s a lot of hard work any college ball

[@ronron4402]

Hey you guys I know this is probably a weird question but I’ve always wanted to play baseball but I never did I always played football, I was good but wasn’t good to go pro but I really really want to play baseball is it too late for me? Like I know I don’t have game film or ever joined in high school I just want to see what I can do a some try outs at colleges do you think they give me a change?

[@victoraaron5924]

I want to ask a question, I’m From Africa , I want to play college basketball on scholarship in the us , I would use this tip , a lot of folks has told me to forget my dream , but I won’t . Thanks so much for this video

[@bigwilliejones9486]

are they allowed to respond to you if you’re a freshman?

[@matthewlucero7326]

Do you recommend this for a freshmen or wait a year or 2

[@catching101]

It depends where you are in the recruiting process. Some guys have already committed even before their freshman year...some guys don't commit until after their senior year. I'd say do it during the recruiting process when you're communicating with schools.

[@DragunovWayne]

And for me, a Brazilian who would really like to be part of a team in college but doesn't live in the US and never went to high school there, would it be possible? And what could I do?

[@darrionthomas5326]

I didnt play highschool sports and i wanna play basketball for a juco what do i do

[@naaamlly]

Would you just send the video in an email?

[@isaqueizidorodiasmartins4184]

I am Brazilian and I would like to have subtitles in Portuguese to get to know your work better

[@DragunovWayne]

Também sou brasileiro 😅👍🏻

[@tj2flossy603]

Does this work for international basketball players? cuz i'm from europe

[@dolphin4045]

What if you can’t get the access to make a video

[@catching101]

I'd be willing to bet that you have a phone with a video camera, or if you don't you have a friend who would let you borrow one.

[@dolphin4045]

I mean like during a game

[@eltclixcy9325]

Idk I’m just confused becuase my dad won’t sign me up for a club baseball team becuase he thinks everyone is out their for themselves but I go to a really good highschool in MN that produced joe Mayer and Paul molitor so idk what to do to get my name out there and I was playing summer ball with are varisty team at my highschool so idk if that’s good or not

[@terrencehunter-fh1he]

What if I’m in 6th grade would they still offer me

[@calvinmcintosh1048]

Probably not dude wait till 8th grade or when you go to highschool

[@adrianmedina9778]

I’m in 8th grade right now and I’m wondering if I should do this now or my freshman year?

That depends on where you are in the recruiting process. For some players it's earlier than others.
