***JUCO Coaches*** I got a guard in a unique situation. Full-court dog defender that will definitely slow/shut down those scoring guards in your conference. Hits the three ball as well.
I love recruiting...Its easy to target the favorites. But I love finding the diamond in the rough. The slept on underdog. Gimme the kid with no offers or minimal traction that can play. Bet we develop him and get eyes on em.

This documentary will be a small glimpse into their lives and the challenges that arise, on the road to be a college level athlete. OUR Prep Academy proudly presents NO OFFERS: The Life of A Prep Athlete. Streaming soon on ForneyExtremeTv
First episode of No Offers: The Journey of A Prep Athlete streaming soon. Get an inside look of each of our players as they develop and receive offers to play college ball.
These guys worked hard, taking college classes, volunteering in the community, weightlifting, training, traveling, competing and developing as young men. As this season approaches the end, we hope that O.U.R. Prep Academy’s Team 2023 learned from all that we’ve taught.
I'm looking for that underdeveloped big/post that wants to work. I'm not talking about the ready made stud. I want the guy that they say "man if he knew" or "if somebody ever worked with him".
Space getting tight over here but we still wanna help. If you're a unsigned C/O 24' or know a unsigned 24' that's still looking for a program or weighing options drop your film or DM. Get an honest evaluation at the least.
#FindYourNextSeason
OUR recruiting process is one of honesty and INTEGRITY. To speak negatively about another program because your interested in the same kid is something we will never do. Is that really a thing!?
To the coaches that put guys on our radar
To the players that took the time to reach out, express interest, submit film, or respond to OUR message
To the families that contacted us about their kid
To the @'s, RT, and Likes
THANK YOU the 2024 team looking good. 🐐
Listen, if you're a prospective college STUDENT-ATHLETE, social media is your marketing/advertising for your business. Presentation is everything

Commit to a combination of where your wanted and what feels right. Find a coach/program that's gonna match your investment. Then go all in.

Went Post Grad
Went JUCO
MORAL OF THE STORY KEEP GOING !!!
HS Seniors...If prep/post-grad is financially an option, explore it and do it. If you have some juco offers that work better for your situation then do that. Take either route with a chip on your shoulder and work to make the best of your opportunity.

Highlights from our highly successful time in Florida, this team plays with that Youngstown Grit and Intensity. Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all. Let’s go OUR Prep Academy
I don't have a problem with a player treating our program like a last option. I also don't have a problem when the last option is unavailable.

Can your "character" keep you where your talents can take you? Finding someone to develop your mindset is just as important as your skillset.
#FindYourNextSeason
College Coaches (no offense I need you)...I know its hardcore portal hustlin right now...But could you please try to make this experience a positive one for the young c/o 24' HS and Juco grads!? An evaluation, offer, or expression of non-interest helps them more than you know.
As a program we can only recruit so many players that play the 1 for next year. But man I've talked to some good point guards. Post-up guys and knockdown shooters, these the kinda guards that make you look good.
#FindYourNextSeason
Some ppl will never understand what it means to be "solid" or move with integrity. Some ppl are really in this for the right reasons. This is pure class and I appreciate you Coach!

Student-athletes need to know both sides of the business. The landscape has changed drastically. Yesterday's offer is not today's offer. Don't price yourself out of an opportunity to increase your value or resume. Stop taking outdated advice.

@JoshuaSolida
an athlete that can jump out gym and a shooter. He would be an asset to any college program.
A program can only wish that they could get the type of free promo and attention that was just given for saying a kid has offers but only wants to go D1... Check. Well played Coach well played
This is why I tell young guys don't get discouraged with this process. Coaches competing for their livelihoods. I know some of yall in the gym training hard but...Experience is lifes greatest teacher. Clearly also a competitive advantage. "When in Rome"

Our jobs are to ultimately prepare them for the world they will live in and environments they will need to navigate. They need to learn the lessons of accountability and the consequences of lacking it. From there they can make their own educated decisions.
The best part of recruiting is actually the worst part of recruiting. Getting to the end and feeling confident about what you put together vs Getting to the end and knowing it's some kids you no longer have room for.

POST GRAD PROGRAMS IT’S SAD THAT I MUST SAY THIS, HAVE YOUR NEW COMMITS UNDER CONTRACT & DEPOSIT IN HAND. GUYS who have little to no ethics or morals negatively recruiting waiting till you post kids to try & undercut you to the kid & family. NOT EVERYONE HAS INTEGRITY
Let's create the most opportunities for the most kids. Develop them and maybe even play against each other. Like at a sanctioned event. Who knows, maybe send em to different colleges around the country.
To add to that...I think if a reputable Prep/Post-grad offers you to extend your basketball career that's a viable opportunity as well. Créme de la créme...Rise to the top

Many D1 JUCOs aren’t even recruiting HS athletes anymore. They are using the “JUCO portal” and getting D1 transfers.
can’t win with young guys in their leagues so they want sophomore heavy rosters.
