Reply to "Early Recruit Signing"

As a parent getting to this site early in your son's recruiting will benefit your son and provide reason & sanity in your household.  You'll be able to gather intel to help guide your motivated son.  Please know that your son is early in the process; any kids you see committing as a Freshman or Sophomore are taking themselves off the "recruiting market" at the advantage of the college who "verbally" offered. There are exceptions.

Early communication by a college coach is typically channeled through the travel coach/travel program (as 9an7 mentioned above)  If your son attends a specific colleges camp the coaches are able to talk directly to your son or you.  They'll follow up their interest through your son's coaches.  

Keep your son involved with multiple sports as long as you can, get him stronger, if he's a solid player, find out about the top reputation baseball programs in your area: solid coaching, quality instruction, age/skill level appropriate tournaments, and look at the baseball program 16 & 17U age groups - who is getting recruited by which colleges.  It's a nice tell as to how connected a lot of the program coaches are.  But eventually the process starts with your son:  his dream, objective assessments of his ability, work ethic on the field and in the classroom.  Our job is to guide our players and provide doses of probability & reality.  

Lots of terrific people with experience at every stage on this site.  ALSO, the search button on the top right of the page will be a great resource for you.
