cJ: Does it hurt a recruit to transfer to multiple High Schools during their 4 years in HS?

BCP: This topic doesn’t get discussed enough. Usually glossed over in my opinion. To answer the question: It raises red flags. Can hurt some kids more than others. But it sure is cause for concern. Some reasons are unavoidable such as military family, college coach’s son, parent job situation…along those lines. But when a kid moves from school to school because “Things are not going his way,” college coaches will surely frown upon it. “What will stop the kid from wanting to transfer from our school?” – College Coach

Aliyah: Your coverage for football is awesome can we expect the same for basketball (girls and boys) and track?

BCP: Unfortunately not. Currently we only focus on football and boys hoops.

Leon: Both E’andre Smith Haines City and Wilbur Cooper and also Artavious Pierce of Auburndale had big springs what do you think of them now looking at the Spring game performance? Do you think their recruiting attention could possibly go up even more after their spring game performance?

BCP: I have not seen all three players spring game performances. From what I have seen, it should improve their recruiting attention.
