Big 12 Spotlight: A Notable Pipeline for High School Talent Factory
The majority of recruitment is when coaching staff step into the doors in high school programs. And once coaching staff can create pipelines at these high school soccer factories, that will be one of the biggest built-in recruitment benefits each year.
This week we are looking at whether the Power Four program has an established pipeline at a particular high school soccer factory. Next is Big 12.
Chandler (Arizona) Hamilton – Arizona
One of the biggest aspects of Arizona High School recruitment in at least the last decade is Arizona and ArizonaIt’s difficult to maintain your top flight talent.
The state’s top player, this recruiting cycle, Tait Reynolds, is committed to Clemson. For the final cycle, Cooper Perry went to Oregon. And many times. However, Arizona did an incredible job locking up the top player at Powerhouse Chandler (Arizona) Hamilton as the Wildcats achieved great success there.
Five players on the roster – linebacker Taye Brown, receiver Tre Spivey, offensive lineman Grayson Stovall, and defensive backs Genesis Smith and Dajon Hinton all come from schools outside Phoenix for less than two hours.
Arizona is back in Chandler, Arizona, but not Hamilton HS.
Bradenton (Florida) IMG Academy – Colorado
All top programs will be sent to Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy for its top prospects. Colorado coach Dion Sanders There, he has achieved an incredible amount of success, especially persuading top players to head to Boulder.
Five-star offensive tackle Jordan Seton, who had an impressive freshman season with Buffalo, was his biggest win from Colorado’s IMG. Flipsing four-star defensive lineman London Merritt from the second half of Ohio’s final recruitment cycle was also a big win. High 3-star defensive end Alexander MacPherson has a special physics tool.
Much of Colorado’s roster management comes through a transfer portal. But hitting the IMG Academy is by no means a bad idea, and building a larger pipeline only benefits the buffs.
Draper (Utah) Corner Canyon – Utah
Yuta The coaching staff also did an impressive job in Kafuku, Hawaii, but do UTES. Really At Powerhouse Draper (Utah) Corner Canyon, we continue to pump elite players in almost every class of recruitment.
Utah hasn’t got everyone from there as quarterbacks Jackson Dart and Heraman Kasga and receiver Jerome Miles escaped. However, UTES landed current quarterback Isaac Wilson, offensive lineman Isaiah Garcia and defensive Kash Dillon from there.
A huge amount of talent emerges from Utah, many of them perform in Corner Canyon. It’s a big deal to keep that pipeline open, especially for schools in the state, and it’s something you can pay dividends.
Sanford (Florida) Seminole-UCF
It started with Gabe Davis of the Jacksonville Jaguars UCF The Seminoles from Sanford (Fla.) continue as the main pipeline of knights with many players on Bokey Football’s current roster.
Defensive backs Ja’cari Henderson, Chasen Johnson, Demari Henderson and Linebacker Kam Moore are all from the Powerhouse Sanford Seminole, just 20 minutes north of UCF’s campus.
For first year coaches Scott Frost It’s important to have another huge success at UCF and keep local players home, and it all starts at the Sanford Seminole.
