Top-notch tips for student athletes August 25, 2008
If you want to play sports in college, this is the book you need. The book raises so many issues that you might never think of such as what to do if a coach reneges on an offer, how to make a strong impression on a coach from the moment he or she steps on your school's campus and when you can and can't communicate with a coach. The author does a great job of weaving in examples of what to do and what not to do in the recruiting process.
A MUST read if you have a high school athlete in the family October 26, 2008
This book is packed with information that is key to getting in front of the right people. College coaches are busy and competing to get their mind share is very difficult. This book has great insider information that clears up the mysterious "hot to" of getting the attention your athlete needs when they need it. As a parent of an athlete, I found there wasn't a source to go to for clear information on what to do. Mr. Brown has put together a much needed source of valuable information. Every coach should be passing this book out to their teams!
 Good, solid read with extremely useful information October 31, 2008

I use to work in the recruiting office of a Major BIG XII university. From that first hand experience, I understand the things that can get the attention of the sports staff for future recruits. One top of all that, I have a cousin who is a D1 (FBS) player in soccer at a ACC school. This book provides fact, that is invaluable. It is a shame that I did not have this idea, or have this book for my cousin's parents. A must read.
