What the sheet also says

- The sheet notes that NCAA rules bar coaches from contacting prospects until after June 15 following their sophomore year.

Getting recruited by Florida State
- 1Fill out the questionnaire
Most programs collect prospects through a recruiting questionnaire on their official site. Look for it on Florida State's track and field pages, along with the coaching staff's contact details.
- 2Email your event coach
Keep it short. Give your events, your FAT marks with wind readings and meet dates, links to your results, your graduation year, GPA and test scores, and the meets you're running next.
- 3Be honest about where you are
Compare your wind-legal FAT marks to the tier you're aiming for. If you're close but haven't hit it, say so and show how your last few races have trended.
- 4Follow up when you PR
A new mark is the best reason to write again. Coaches build their recruiting boards over months, so send a time that crosses one of their lines as soon as you run it.
