Episode #187: Andrew Kachel on Recruiting

⚾ The New Reality of College Recruiting | Andrew Kachel Part II College recruiting is changing—and the junior college route may be more valuable than ever. In Part II of my conversation with Northeastern Junior College Head Baseball Coach Andrew Kachel , we break down the realities of recruiting at the two-year college level, the new 5-for-5 rule , the transfer portal, and why families need to rethink how they evaluate college opportunities. Coach Kachel explains why JUCO can provide athletes more opportunities to play, develop, mature academically, and potentially make themselves more recruitable and affordable to four-year programs . We also discuss what families should look for when evaluating junior colleges, why placement and fit matter more than simply saying you went Division I , and how recruits can get a coach's attention without spending thousands of dollars chasing exposure. If you're a student-athlete, parent, high school coach, or anyone trying to understand the changing college recruiting landscape, this conversation provides a valuable look at the opportunities available at the two-year level.
