Recruiting Doesn’t Start at AAU—It Starts With Communication (Coach’s Perspective) K
eith Mondillo, a college basketball coach and athletic director with 31 years of experience, explains that recruiting doesn’t begin at AAU or club events—it begins with early communication that gets an athlete on a coach’s list before a tournament. He describes how coaches arrive at gyms with specific players to evaluate, often after already seeing film and receiving emails, and why performance without visibility often goes unnoticed. He warns families against waiting, hoping coaches will discover their child, and emphasizes that recruiting boards fill as the process moves on. He urges families to create structure and a plan, noting his upcoming College Recruiting on-Ramp System, and outlines immediate steps: build a realistic school list, send an introductory email, include film, and follow up consistently.
