Hidden Talent: A Real Recruiting Guide for Athletes Flying Under the Radar

You don't need to be a 5-star athlete to play in college. You just need a plan-and the right coach to believe in you.
Hidden Talent is the real-world recruiting guide written for the athletes who feel overlooked, underestimated, or unsure of how to get noticed. Whether you're from a small town, didn't start until junior year, or just don't have the exposure others do-this book was written with you in mind.

This isn't fluff. It's a step-by-step playbook for athletes (and their families) who want real answers and a real shot.

Inside, you'll learn:

• How college coaches actually discover and evaluate talent

• What to include in your emails, highlight videos, and conversations

• How to get attention without being pushy or having a "name"

• What to look for during campus visits-and red flags to avoid

• The truth about scholarships, walk-ons, and financial aid

• The role of parents, high school coaches, and club teams

• Mistakes that silently ruin your chances (and how to avoid them)

Also included are powerful case studies of "hidden talents" who made it-players who earned their spot by staying focused, prepared, and persistent when others gave up.

Whether you're aiming for NCAA, NAIA, or JUCO programs, Hidden Talent will help you take ownership of your journey, communicate with confidence, and open doors you didn't think were possible.

You only need one opportunity. This book helps you find it-and make the most of it.
