Recruiting is a topic I'm pretty outspoken about on social media as I feel many high school baseball players are going about it the wrong way. On this weeks episode I steer you clear of all the BS by giving you my honest opinion on each recruiting method (college camps, showcases, tournaments) that's available to you so you can actually get recruited by the school you desire to attend! If you're someone who's going through the recruiting process or if you're a parent who's son or daughter is going through the recruiting process this episode is a MUST listen!
