Social media and tagging

[Kelley Green]

Should I tag coaches and schools that I want to attend, when I post content about myself or show a video of a highlight in my sport?

Really have to be careful with social media. I would not do what you are suggesting. I would get a video together and send it to the schools in which you have interest. My young assistants used to scour social media that a recruit would post, but they weren’t looking for highlight video. They were looking for things that would give us more insight to the young man. For instance, i would not post yourself at a party. We know you go to parties, we just don’t want to see it and it gives a poor impression. Be careful what you post, like or dislike. I mean, it’s a free country and you can post, like, or dislike anything you want. Some coaches pay it no mind. Others do if they believe it is a character issue.
