3 Recruiting Tips for HS QBs
1. Stop waiting to get discovered - start creating your own exposure. A lot of quarterbacks think a coach is just going to magically find them. That’s not how recruiting works anymore. You need to be sending film, going to camps where the right schools are, and building relationships with coaches. The quarterbacks who get recruited are the ones who are proactive about their exposure. 2. Your film matters more than your stats. College coaches don’t care if you threw for 4,000 yards against weak competition. They want to see how you move, how fast you process, your mechanics, your decision-making, and how you respond under pressure. A clean 3–4 minute highlight tape that shows command of the offense is way more powerful than a stat sheet. 3. Coaches recruit leaders, not just arms. Every quarterback at the college level can throw. What separates recruits is leadership, confidence, and composure. How do your teammates respond to you? Do you command the huddle? Do you bounce back after a bad play? That stuff shows up on film, and it matters way more than people think.
