Mac and Darren tackle one of the biggest myths in the recruiting world: "It's a bad thing for prospects to share schools they have interest in." We give several reasons why we believe this is completely false, why it is actually a great idea for prospects to share schools that they like, and how easy it is to do it on our site.
We also address the importance of courage to use leverage in recruiting and how most volleyball athletes are afraid to do that in today's process.

**We also answer a letter from one of our Str8Talk Recruiting Subscribers on Libero recruiting.
*Then we dive into some NCAA matchups and tourney talk

Must listen/watch for any prospect/parent/coach of anyone involved in the Club Recruiting Process.
