Description

Recruiting has changed... again.

With the transfer portal, new NCAA rules, and social media shaping the process, athletes and parents are more confused than ever about how to actually get recruited.

In this episode, Nick Lemke talks with Rodney Cox, founder of Game Time Recruiting & Consulting and former Arizona State football player, to break down what athletes need to do differently for 2025 and 2026 recruiting.


What You’ll Learn:

  • How the recruiting game has changed (and what coaches look for now)
  • Why DMs and Twitter/X are non-negotiable for recruits
  • What to include in your bio (GPA = “Get Paid Academically”)
  • How to get noticed even if you're injured or your team or coach is struggling
  • Mistakes that ruin offers before they’re real

What’s one thing you’re changing in your recruiting approach after hearing this episode?
