How do you know if a college coach really wants you?
Answered

If a college coach has reached out to you and you haven't heard back from them in a while should you get worried?

hi, is the college coach a private college coach or part of your high school? Is the service free or is it paid for by you?

@Edi605, it's a Private College Coach. Well I have emailed them and received an offer but then heard nothing back from them since then.

Oh that’s unfortunate but maybe that’s an indication that that company is a small set up and has no other PersonSl to reply to emails … what state are you at? I know a good one in Minnesota area… top tier is at Massachusetts’s but see clients from all over

West Virginia. It's just sad because it's my top college I want to play at and they are either to busy or lazy to answer.

Oh you are athlete.:.there are rules for college athletic recruitment wrt timing … https://toptieradmissions.com/athletic-recruiting-and-college-admissions/ …… https://toptieradmissions.com/athletic-recruiting-and-college-admissions-part/ …. Here is excerpt …. Prior to September 1 of your junior year, Division I and Division II coaches cannot reply to any of your inquiries. They are only able to send you two pieces of information: a questionnaire (fill it out!) and information about their camps.

Good day @CaitlynN,

It could be that the coach is a bit busy. If you haven't heard from the coach in a long time, you can consider writing the coach an email telling him that you have not heard from him yet. You can also include a short sentence telling the coach why you would be a good fit for his college and your current progress in the sporting activity.

@Ibukunoluwa Thanks. I have sent him at least 4 emails. I'm just worried that he doesn't want me anymore since I have not heard back from him.

@Ibukunoluwa2 years ago

@CaitlynN If he hasn't responded then he is probably busy because it is unlikely that he would just move on to another person without responding.
