NSR’s Service Is More In Demand Than Ever<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

At NSR<\/a><\/strong>, we receive requests from college coaches every day.\u00a0 With budget shortfalls and the steady decrease in alumni giving and corporate gifts, college CEO’s are putting the pinch on athletic departments to cut expenses, if not corners in ancillary spending.\u00a0 That’s bad news for coaches, but excellent news for NSR<\/strong> kids who are prime targets\u00a0for coaches who must comply with NCAA<\/a> APR minimums and aren’t given\u00a0unbridled financial freedom.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Coaches are searching for prospects who can quickly turn complex strategies into action.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The financial\u00a0scenario typically\u00a0has more of an impact on minor sports and smaller college athletic programs, NSR<\/strong> is experiencing something akin to an awakening among major college coaches.\u00a0 Over the past\u00a0three months, NSR<\/strong> has received a boom in DI requests.\u00a0\u00a0What does this indicate?\u00a0<\/p>\n

First, the\u00a0NCAA’s Academic Performance\u00a0Rate (APR)<\/strong>\u00a0for major\u00a0DI sports has coaches looking much harder at\u00a0grades, test scores and character than\u00a0ever\u00a0before.\u00a0 The greatest athlete is not always the greatest student, to state the obvious.\u00a0 So coaches, especially those\u00a0whose presidents and athletic directors are\u00a0closely scrutinizing their recruiting practices as well as the individual athletes they bring on campus, are\u00a0having to\u00a0turn over more stones in search of better\u00a0academic performing student-athletes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Because the average NSR<\/strong> athlete has a\u00a0 3.0+ GPA, our clients are perfect options for them to evaluate without having to shake the bushes as much out on the road.\u00a0 Second, athletic\u00a0game strategies\u00a0have become so\u00a0sophisticated over recent years that coaches need to find smarter kids\u00a0to grasp and\u00a0quickly put into practice those strategies.\u00a0 If they can find intelligent yet quality kids, coaches would prefer to have them on the team.\u00a0\u00a0It’s a no-brainer.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nearly every college program in America at one time or another has submitted a request for our assistance through the College E-mail Request Form.\u00a0 But, that’s not surprising.\u00a0 Having worked with college coaches for 30 years, we are well-known and respected by coaches from NCAA<\/a><\/strong> Division I through the community college system.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Budget shortfalls have created an increased need for NSR's service to college coaches.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Why?\u00a0 Different coaches have different reasons for accessing our database of prospects and our worldwide team of professional high school scouts.\u00a0 Here are a few of those reasons:<\/div>\n
