How to get Noticed/Offers???

At what level does he play in the HS spectrum in your region?

Approaching 50 RBI's in 100 AB's---what does approaching mean


If what you say is real and factural there is more here than we can extrapolate or perhaps the boy is not as good as you think he is since he plays in a state known for it baseball talent

He plays 5A in Louisiana which is the Highest Classification. His RBI total is between 45 and 50. Not exactly sure. Overall between 95-100 Official at bats. I had exact numbers through 22 games but 23 to 30 are from what I can recall from memory.

What HI exposure events has he been seen at , if any?

Also he is an honor student, 26 on ACT, Academic All State Linebacker, National Honor Society, Registered with NCAA Clearinghouse.

He went to the Pro Day Best of the Best but it was a Saturday morning in Alabama after a Friday night football game and he was physically a bit banged up. He played in the LSL, Louisiana Scout League,(Wood Bat Scout League that was supposed to play throughout state at college fields for coaches) that that didn't turn out so well. Mostly rainouts and games played in front of no one.

May I ask why you have waited to the end of april in his senior year to ask for assistance?

Why has he not played with LA teams in the WWBA events or like?

We played in the local High School Summer League with his teammates. I thought his numbers and Senior Season would draw interest. I should have held him back in middle school. He's still 17 until June 30 so I was at least hoping for an invite to come in and be redshirted. While I am biased, the numbers are real. I guess his dad is his biggest liability. Only son, figured out things too late.

Anyway, If anyone is interested, his profile can be seen at : http://profiles.berecruited.com/athletes/106927

Hey Bayou,

You need to be sending this link to coaches and not us...you've got to market yourself...and part of that is making some initial contacts and not waiting for it to come to you. Good luck with it.

BayouE, scdigger is right -- you need to be sending this info to college coaches. Look at the websites of the colleges your son is interested in and there is usually an email address listed for the recruiting coordinator or head coach.

You need to cast a wide net and target lots of schools of all levels -- D1, D2, D3, JUCO. Honestly, even though your son is posting big numbers, it's impossible to say what level he is best suited for. While his bat speed might be just fine for high school ball with pitching in the low 80's, it may not be sufficient for higher velocities at top-level colleges.

Your son's main problem may be that he got very little exposure in front of college coaches. Summer league ball is okay, but not all that helpful from a recruiting standpoint.

There may be some colleges in your area having summer camps/showcases in June and July, and you should enroll your son in as many as you can afford. Pay special attention to the JUCO camps. Since it is so late in the game, many of the 4-year colleges may have already secured all their players for next year.

Best wishes to your son!
