D1 C+ Recruiting Topic

Finally got to a C+ with my low major. Thus the upcoming recruiting cycle will be very important. How high of a recruit is too high to shoot for? Any advice for me so I don't blow this opportunity? Feel free to sitemail if you'd like. thanks for any tips

deemo I'm far from an expert on this, but with my C+ DI squad I've been able to successfully recruit players who started with ratings in the 580s and rankings at their position as low as the 30s.

I have a C+ prestige and currently have the #13 SG and #17 SF on squad.

Deemo, the key here is finding the sweet spot for recruits -- not going after guys that are pretty clearly going to get love from the high major teams, but still have more than enough upside to keep your program on an upward trend. I wouldn't recruit much differently from when you had a C. The big difference might be finding one guy (have some targets, but be flexible) who is a step above what you have been signing the last couple seasons, and the rest of the guys being comparable. With three openings, my soft plan would be one guy like that and another lower-rated, higher potential guy to go with him. You may end up signing three depending on whether you get heat on either of the initial guys.
