Since the Head Coach usually has final say on a recruit I prefer to contact the head coach initially---if he wants to continue correspondence with the recruit thru the recruiting coordinator
I think it best to start with the top gun and let him direct you from there
Why not just contact both. You can in your intial corespondence indicate that you are contacting both head and assistant coaches and ask them to advise you as to whom you need to dialogue with.
When you block a person, they can no longer invite you to a private message or post to your profile wall. Replies and comments they make will be collapsed/hidden by default. Finally, you'll never receive email notifications about content they create or likes they designate for your content.
Note: if you proceed, you will no longer be following .
