If you are good, people are going to find you. It doesn't matter who you are or where you play. There are rooms full of scouting service employe whiz kids who do nothing but go over press reports, high school rosters, bulletin boards, web pages, etc. to cull info on prospects. If you are talented, have the size and can make the grades, they know where you are and colleges will invest money in trying to find you and recruit you. Success is not whether you were featured on last night's newscast. Success is a D1 or D2 offer. Far too often at the local level, the most vocal advocate of a player's ability comes from his parents, and that perception is at times not grounded in reality.
