Basketball recruiting

Where can your basketball athlete actually play?

A named, specific list of college basketball programs that fit — scored against your points per game and what it really took to make each roster. Every division, D1 through D3. Not a brochure. A map.

Scored against real rosters

Not a brochure. We place you against what it actually took to make each program's roster, division by division.

Reach, match, and safety by fit

Ranked by where you can realistically play and contribute — playing time and roster need, not prestige.

Real net cost by family income

What each school costs after aid at your income band, so the list is a plan you can afford, not a wish.

Coach outreach that's ready to send

A personalized first email to each program's coach, built from your own numbers.

Built for basketball, position by position

We map every position, and score the ones that have a recruited-caliber stat on their own number:

What it takes

The basketball numbers that get you recruited

Where recruited basketball players land on points per game, by level, from current college rosters. A directional bar to place yourself against, not a cutoff. Your real fit depends on position, competition, and more.
