Uh , so always be on your best behavior when communicating , visiting , calling with coaches , that sort of thing . Why did I choose Youngstown State ? Uh , on my visit , I really liked , and before my visit , I was communicating with Brad , my coach , and he seemed like a really good guy and .
Like I didn't know I was end up in Youngstown until . A couple of months before I committed , so it , it is , it truly is a process and you just got to go with an open mind and you're gonna , you're gonna end up in a college that you really like , um , after your senior year . So good luck and best , uh , best wishes .
So if , if you're dealing with there is . Large number of people on campus here that they can help you with basically anything you're dealing with , but you just gotta to effectively communicate with them , whether it's you're gonna be late to practice or you need help studying or You just didn't like the practice that much . Being able to communicate is a very important piece of succeeding as a student , an athlete , and in life in general .
I emailed him and we went back and forth , and I , we sent visits , came here . I really liked the school and I committed November of my senior year . But uh it's a slow process , just wherever you are , it doesn't matter if it's not going as fast or as thorough as you as you'd like at the beginning , just focus on getting better and Uh , you'll , I'm confident you'll find a school that you really click with at the end of the day .
And um , be respectful , uh , respond to your coach , the prospective coaches in a timely manner when you're communicating with them or on an official visit or call , whatever , uh , just make sure you're representing yourself the best you can . And then make sure that The coach at the prospective college is . Someone that you can see yourself with 4 years , 5 years , however long , but the biggest thing is just be respectful , be authentic .
