In two sentences he knows your position, your grad year, why you’re writing, and why he should care. That’s everything he needs before deciding whether to recruit you.
Then before you hit send, drop a link to your Twitter. He’ll click it, and a lot of the time he’ll follow.
And this is the line that decides whether you get a reply or stay stuck in email jail:
“Do you recruit Wisconsin, or is another coach on your staff responsible for my area?”
It’s easy to answer, it costs him nothing, and either way you walk away knowing who you should actually be talking to.
Email alone won’t get you offers. But it’s how I got 500+ D1 coaches to watch my film.
If you’re getting zero replies, your messages are going to spam.
Comment "INBOX" and I’ll send you the fix.View quoted post on X
