Episode Synopsis
Episode Title: The Fastest 48: Real Recruiting Talk, Late-Season Paths, and the Truth About Levels Hosts: JP Rock & Matt Biermann Presented by: Game Plan Strategies (free consult) & GetOFFRD (recruiting CRM + coach outreach) 🎙 Episode Summary JP and Matt dive into the crunch-time realities of recruiting as seasons wrap up. If your season just ended (or is about to), here's what to do next—and how to be brutally honest about level, speed, and film. They break down why D2/JUCO are now legitimate springboards, how to package your info so coaches actually respond, and preview a slate of must-watch Missouri/Illinois playoff matchups. 🔑 Key Topics & Takeaways Tools that actually help: Game Plan Strategies — clear path, honest evals, step-by-step plan (free consultation). GetOFFRD.com — email/DM 10k+ coaches, track outreach, organize profiles, keep receipts. It's not too late—if you work: Post-season plan for seniors vs. roadmap for younger players. First pitfall: thinking you're better than you are. Honest evaluation saves time and money. Film > Hype: Varsity clips, easy links, verified measurables (HT/WT/40/Broad/Vert). Don't make coaches hunt. D2/JUCO ≠ purgatory: Today they're on-ramps—play early, stack tape, level up. Multi-sport truth: Play multiple sports if you want, but don't let it be the excuse for skipping football prep. Love the game vs. love the idea: If you "won't play unless it's D1," ask whether you actually love football. Parents' lens: Stats, all-conference/all-state ≠ offers. Colleges recruit traits, tape, fit. Off-season wins seasons: January training blocks, 7v7 tryouts, February combines—stack momentum now. 🏆 Local/Regional Spotlight & Matchups Parkway West (9–2) vs. Fort Zumwalt North — marquee matchup; high-level QB play and deep WR room at West. Class 3: Live for Life's comeback vs. St. Genevieve; now draws Valley Catholic at their place. Class 4: Vianney (4–6) is dangerous (Sam Dean to Missouri Southern); faces tough Sullivan (9–3), a hard-nosed, well-coached group. Game of the week (Class 4): Kearney (10–0) vs. Savannah (10–1) — elite trench play (the Beaver twins, Mason & Isaac; North Dakota commits), plus QB Carter Temple (size, arm, wrestles, real tools). ✅ Action Plan (for Players & Parents) Package your profile: One doc/link with: height/weight, verified testing, position(s), contact info, transcripts, highlight + 2–3 game links. Send smart, not random: Target realistic levels first (D2/FCS), then work upward. Keep a log of who/when/how (GetOFFRD). Book an evaluation: Get an honest read on level, timeline, and gaps (Game Plan Strategies). Commit to January–March: Strength/speed block, 7v7 for reps/competitive sharpening, February combines for updated numbers. Follow up weekly: Treat it like training—consistent touches beat one big blast. 🗓 What's Coming Up 7v7 Tryouts: Multiple programs ramping up—use them for competitive reps and football IQ. Combines: Youth Combine: Presidents Day High School Combine: Mid-March (get updated numbers before college camps) 📣 Sponsors & Links Game Plan Strategies — free consultation, personalized recruiting roadmap (site as mentioned on air).
