Any recruiting plan should have a list of target schools that are a possible athletic, academic and financial fit. How does spamming on social media help reach these schools?
It can help if you have a lot of RCs following you. They know everyone is seeing the same thing. A kid from our state was an unknown in July, now all of this videos have 15-40k views. Someone watches.
But is that really what you want, "some RCs" following? Are they on your targeted list? Maybe, but why not DM them directly, or email. I agree it won't hurt, but it posting things on social media shouldn't give anyone a sense of progress towards a goal.

Every school that talked to my son during recruitment started following him on Twitter. You don’t want to spam coaches non stop but if they see your videos, you stay on their mind... at least that was our thought process.
