OUR SERVICES
DELIVERABLES
Set a foundation of confidence around your student’s “scholar-athlete” status and how to leverage that status everywhere.
Conduct an athletic evaluation (measurables + film) to help set realistic goals and expectations around high-academic FBS / FCS/ Ivy League / Patriot / NESCAC, and their peer schools.
Conduct an academic assessment - GPA, including academic rigor (AP’s and honors - how much is enough?) and test scores. Start thinking about extra-curriculars, and substantive academic “lanes.”
Based on these assessments, create a carefully considered target list of schools, aligned with the athlete’s and family’s interests and values.
Create and execute a tailored recruiting strategy for those schools and coaches, including how to schedule and handle Junior Days, Showcase Camps, school visits, coach contacts.
Create a compelling highlight tape for distribution on hudl and beyond.
Curate an effective social media strategy (weekly posts) that the athlete ‘owns' and runs (he hits ‘send’), but Coach Cahill actively guides to create an ongoing, branded presence on X. (X has become LinkedIn for recruitable athletes.)
Update and guide around ever-shifting NCAA recruiting rules, news, and impending changes.
Prep for essays; role play crucial conservations with college coaches, admissions interviewers and other high stakes interactions with the adult world.
Note that the overall goal is return a measure of control and ownership of this all-too-random and adult-driven process, back to the student athlete - working to ensure that parents, coaches, recruiters (and us consultants) aren’t helicoptering, bulldozing and over-coaching the athlete’s executive functioning into anxiety-filled passivity, confusion and frustration.
