Identified as talent will trigger HA interest but I will also add that it is a MUST to have test scores before a HA D1 will recruit. You did mention that your son does not have test scores? When my son went through his journey, every school requested his transcripts and test scores before they went full force. After they received them each school made their decision to continue recruiting or not. HA D1 have the same goal of pursuing the best players on the Sept 1 date that every other school has but also have to meet academic guidelines. If guidelines like Academic Index and school's selective min admission requirement can't be met then there is not reason to move forward with the recruiting. Most schools were pretty transparent and let you know pretty early on where the player was on their recruiting board.
