Just to be clear,  College Baseball Insights is not a recruiting service, nor do we claim to be.

There is a simple understanding, if a player is interest in playing at the next level, they will need to investigate a target list of schools.

The following article is an overview of the steps one might follow in order to investigate any school.

Investigating College Programs Online

Note, the list below are some question a family would like to answer

Questions to Consider When Researching College Baseball Programs of Interest

If we agree, these are the basic list of questions that any family might ask, then the family has options as to how to investigate any school.

1 - Google schools, go to each website and review

2 - Use a tool (e.g. College Baseball Insights,etc)

3 - Use a recruiting service and give somebody else the control over your son's path.

Now the simple question, is what information is relevant in order to make an informed decision.

This is where the stakeholder must decide how much time they want to spend making these decisions.

College Baseball Insights is simply a one stop shop to help a family research any school (what you see is what you get), in a visualized presentation.

Concept is simple, humans understand outcomes quicker based on visualize presentation.

So what might take you an 1 hr or 2 per school can be done in mins.

The question will be how valuable is your time and what information do you need to make the best informed decision.

Note, how important is Player Attrition Rates?  Depends

As for new players, how many new player come in annually?  How many transfers?

If you are planning to go the JUCO Route, how important is it to know the schools JUCO Pipeline.

Note,  Everything is debatable.

Again, it all depends on what information any stakeholder needs in order to make an informed decision.

What we say is "Trust but Verify"

But like in the movie a "A Few Good Men", many can't handle the truth.
