1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of money, November 6, 2003

This review is from: The Ultimate Men's and Women's Basketball Sports Recruiting 03/04 Guide (Spiral-bound)

I thought the guide would be packed with useful info...instead it was simply a directory of schools (available online for free) and a blank calendar. Some tidbits were sprinkled in but definitely not a good decisiion to get it.

The Ultimate Sports Recruiting Planner is everything any player, parent or coach will need when going through the recruiting process. There is no need to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on "recruiting services" when all the information you need to know is within the pages of this planner. I have coached high school football for 12 years and have never seen anything like this.
