Coaches are building their recruiting boards. Is your son on any of them?
Talented players go unseen every season, not for lack of talent, but because no one's running a real process to get them in front of the right coaches. A scholarship can be worth $100K–$250K+. Two minutes tells you exactly where he stands in the recruiting process, and what's standing between him and his next offer.
Most families don't have a
recruiting system. They have hope.
Hope is not a strategy. And "if he's good, they'll find him," the line every parent hears, sounds right. It isn't true. Talented players get overlooked every year, not because of their tape, but because no one built them a process for getting on a coach's board.
A profile in a database
You built the Hudl profile, paid for the service, and… it just sits there. Uploading film isn't outreach. Coaches aren't combing a database looking for your son.
Advice without a process
A camp here, a tweet there, a coach who "knows a guy." Scattered effort feels like progress. It isn't a campaign, and coaches never hear a consistent, targeted message.
Outreach with no strategy
Mass-blasting 300 schools that don't recruit his position, at his level, at the wrong time of year. Coaches can smell spray-and-pray. It gets deleted.
Meanwhile the calendar keeps moving. Coaches' boards fill up. And the window that felt wide open in his sophomore year quietly starts to close.
It works when someone actually runs it.
From overlooked to a D1 commit in under two months.
Two months from graduation felt like too late to start. It wasn't. Jordan still didn't have a school, and it wasn't the tape (5 INTs, 18 pass breakups) or the grades (3.1 GPA). He was simply overlooked. OTB launched his campaign on March 7. By April 27 he'd committed to Merrimack College (D1), with offers also from Mississippi Valley State, UNC Pembroke and Concordia-St. Paul, and genuine interest from a dozen more programs. Whatever time you have left is more than you think. The assessment tells you exactly how to use it.
Proof before the offer.
Programs responding. Invites landing. Momentum you can measure.
6'2" Sophomore DB with only JV film
He hadn't played a single varsity snap. His parents wondered if there was even anything to work with yet. Aiden started working with OTB the winter after his sophomore year, having only played JV at a top-10 New Jersey program coming off back-to-back state championships. We built his narrative around his 6'2" frame and upside at DB, backed by his JV tape against other top-tier NJ programs. He heard back from 16 D1 programs and received invites to 5 D1 spring practices and games, before ever playing a varsity snap. He now has the relationships in place to capitalize on a highly anticipated junior season.
ATH · varsity starts as a sophomore
A strong sophomore season made it easy to assume recruiting could wait. Kadir started working with OTB the winter after his sophomore year, coming off a season that included varsity starts at CB and a rushing touchdown for a team that made a deep playoff run. We built his narrative around his long-term upside and projection. He heard back from 5 D1 programs and received invites to 2 D1 spring practices and games, plus college camps for an in-person evaluation. He was already ahead. Starting early meant that head start didn't go to waste.
This isn't a profile.
It's a process.
Football-native
Built specifically for football, not adapted from a generic sports platform. The strategy reflects how this sport actually recruits.
Execution-led
Hands-on recruiting work done for you, not a tool you buy and figure out alone at 11pm.
Process over hype
No guaranteed offers. No inflated claims. No passive profiles. Real work, real process, real outcomes.
What OTB is not:
- A passive profile sitting in a database
- A mass-blast email tool
- A scholarship guarantee or a false promise
- A self-serve product you figure out alone
- Generic recruiting advice not built for football
If a service promises offers, be careful. We promise the work, and we run it hard.
Get your son on it.
