Episode #196: Mike Klinzing on Recruiting

What happens when a coach becomes the parent of a college recruit? Mike Klinzing, Co-Host of the Hoop Heads Podcast , returns for Part II of The Significant Coaching Podcast to talk about navigating college recruiting with his own son—and how different the process looks when it’s your own kid. Mike and Matt discuss realistically evaluating an athlete’s ability, identifying the right level, separating the role of coach from the role of parent, communicating with college coaches, and keeping the student-athlete at the center of the decision. Having experienced college athletics as a Division I player, coach, and now recruiting parent, Mike offers a unique perspective on what families can learn from the process—and why finding the right fit matters more than chasing a particular level. 🎙️ The Significant Coaching Podcast | Episode 196 Listen at CoachMattRogers.com/podcast .
