Summary: A High School Coach's Review
Review: As a high school coach who believes it is part of my responsibility to assist acdemically and athletically qualified student/athletes to find athletic scholarsips and have found the recruiting process confusing, frustrating, and unfair, this unique book has turned me into a recruiting magician.The other books I've used for recruiting information are mostly designed for Blue Chip athletes. They don't need much help in getting athletic scholarships. This book is written to help the athletes who aren't necessarily Division I prospects. The different ways it helps from Profile creation to the visit, to important questions, to negotiation strategies and scripts to understanding how unfair the recruiting process actually is and how to use that unfairness as a counterforce t level the playing field for parents and athletes is amazing. The Chapter revealing the real story about Division III recruiting and financial aid for athletic ability is incredibly insightful and powerful.

Summary: A Parent's and Student-Athlete's Guide to Athletic Scholarsh
Review: I wish this book had been available when my student athlete daughter was considering her college choice. It is an easy to use resource filled with practical guides for navigating what is available to students.Information on putting together a videotape, documents needed, the school visit and negotiating guidelines will assist anyone going through this process. There is a huge list of colleges and universities covering the type of athletic scholarship each offers. This is a gift book I will be giving friends and family.

Summary: Where's the Beef?
Review: Nothing Special - Same information you'll find in any other book on the subject. My issue was that for a 464 page book, only 75 pages contained info, the rest was school listings you could get of the internet for free. Other books have much more detailed and better presented info.

Summary: Good Job!
Review: The author did a good job laying things out for us. Here's a hot tip. Linger over the opportunities at West Point. Almost everyone there is a scholar-athlete on full scholarship. And YOU DON'T LOSE YOUR SCHOLARSHIP IF YOU GET HURT! For a heads up on what it's really all about there, read "West Point" by, Norman Thomas Remick.

Summary: Where's the Beef?
Review: This is an outstanding book for parents and students alike. The book opens so many doors with information about financial help to both collages and universities that the average person is not aware of. It offers places to seek financial help and rewards for the great amount of time and efforts these athletes put into their accomplishments. This book which has, listed by states, the names of collages and universities where schoarships are offered, along with the guidelines on how to seek financial help which is so very much needed these days. I only wish a book like this had been available when my children were entering that stage of their lives. I highly recommend this to anyone who has children or knows of anyone who are athletes and are looking to continue their education.
