Assistant College Coaches

You should be sending assistant coaches emails, in addition to the head coach. Most
programs have one assistant coach dedicated as “recruiting coordinator.” The head
coach might have the final say in whether or not they will make you an offer but the
assistant coaches can be just as important (sometimes more so) when it comes to
getting on their radar. Again, you want to be as personalized and relevant as possible
with the assistant coaches but you can still use the same information you used for the
head coach in your emails to the assistants. In the “referencing a coach’s quote
example” , you could change the subject line to: “Coach Watson’s Quote in
Evansvilleliving.com” and then in the body have the same message but tailored toward
the assistant coach. Here is an example you could send to Coach Watson’s assistant,

Subject: Coach Watson’s Quote in Evansvilleliving.com
Body:
Hi Coach Smith,
I came across Coach’s Watson’s quote on Evansvilleliving.com
and I wanted to connect: “What impressed me about last year was
how everyone changed their roles. Guys went from being second
line players to the front line; they moved up on every opponent’s
scouting report.”
My name is Steve O’Brien and I am very interested in becoming
part of the Southern Indiana basketball program. Much like your
current players did for the program this year, I pride myself in being
a team player, abiding by the team system and doing whatever it
takes to win. I am a junior point guard and in the top 15% of my
class academically at Braintree High School in Braintree, MA. I
want to major in Business and have been researching USI’s
College of Business program.

Coach Smith, I will be visiting the Southern Indiana campus in late
October and was hoping you would have some time to meet? I
would also be open to scheduling a call prior at your convenience?
Please let me know if this is possible.
I appreciate your time and I am very eager to meet and learn more
about what you are looking for in a studentathlete and the overall
goals of the program.
Regards,
Steve
