High school recruiting can be extremely frustrating. I hope this episode provides clarity to an athlete & family navigating this process!

I told myself when I first started posting on social media that I would stay away from telling my personal story. I've now learned after posting for 3 months that sharing my story is one of the most powerful things I can do.I hope this episode helps a younger athlete navigate some of the hurdles that sport can throw at you.Subscribe for more episodes!

Hope this helps every Ivy League football player!

Cooper Barkate may be the smartest dude in college football.Cooper was a highly recruited receiver out of Mater Dei in California, pulling in offers from Oregon, Notre Dame, UCLA, and other top Power 4 programs. However, Cooper made the decision to commit to Harvard, and told reporters that he had a plan. Five years later, it looks like his plan panned out. Cooper graduated from Harvard in three years, grad transferred to Duke, was a top receiver in the nation, and decided to transfer for his final season to the University of Miami.Cooper explains how his unconventional path to success in college football is one that college athletes need to consider, as the new NIL landscape is selling kids a false reality.We break down why every kid should consider the ivy league, the truth about NIL, why a smaller school may actually give you more exposure, and how Cooper stayed committed to his plan despite lucrative opportunities.If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe!

I believe every athlete would benefit from pursuing the Ivy League rather than a Power 4 institution.I hope this video helps you navigate a tough decision.
