Recruiting Consulting
Navigating the Recruiting Process
Jon works with high level high school, junior college, and transfer portal athletes who are serious about pursuing opportunities at the next level.
Navigating the recruiting process can feel overwhelming once you realize the odds of continuing to play are stacked against you.
That reality is not meant to scare you away.
It is meant to bring clarity.
With over 10 years of Division I recruiting experience, Jon helps athletes understand what it really takes to earn opportunities at the next level. Instead of avoiding the difficulty of the process, Jon takes the opposite approach. We lean into it together.
This game is too hard to shortcut. Progress comes from honest evaluation, consistent work, and learning how to separate yourself in the areas you can control.
Jon prides himself on working with athletes and families who are serious about development and willing to earn everything they pursue. Because of that, he is selective with who he works with. This is not about selling hope. It is about building clarity, confidence, and long term growth.

Committed Schools
Full Service Recruiting
Guidance from Start to Finish
The Long Term Difference
This is where Jon has seen the biggest impact on athletes.
Full Service Recruiting is not just about getting recruited. It is about building the complete player. Jon empties his knowledge and experience tank across all facets of development, blending mental performance training directly into the recruiting process to help athletes build confidence, self awareness, discipline, and the ability to handle pressure.
The mental game is often the separator between players who simply make it to the next level and those who truly thrive once they arrive. Jon’s goal is not just to help you find a home, but to help you succeed when the game speeds up.
This is the long term plan. The full product. The grand slam.
Because of the depth of this work, Jon only accepts a limited number of athletes into this program. Everyone could benefit from it, but not everyone is ready to commit to it. It has to be the right fit on both sides, with athletes who are willing to lean into growth and take their development to the next level.
