NCAA Football Evaluation PEriod & College Football Spring Ball 2019

NCAA FOOTBALL EVALUATION PERIOD

With NCAA football evaluation period beginning on April 15th, it is pivotal that those athletes aspiring to play NCAA football at the FBS or FCS level of College Football Today be evaluated by NCAA football teams staffs. This period helps NCAA football teams create their recruiting boards for classes all the way out until 2024 at some programs. Right now we are in the Quiet Period as explained below per NCAA. Visit our eligibility page by clicking HERE!

What is a quiet period? - Ends April 15th
"During a quiet period, a college coach may only have face-to-face contact with college-bound student-athletes or their parents on the college’s campus.  A coach may not watch student-athletes compete (unless a competition occurs on the college’s campus) or visit their high schools. Coaches may write or telephone college-bound student-athletes or their parents during this time." -NCAA.org
What you should be doing during this time?

• Compile your highlights into a 3-4 minute clip of your best plays starting your film. 
• Gathering your OFFICIAL transcripts and making sure you have obtained your NCAA clearinghouse ID, through web3.ncaa.org/ecwr3/. 
• Fill out your government financial aid report - THE FAFSA.
• If you're not on a program's radar before this evaluation period begins, the chances are you never will be in your recruiting class.

What is an evaluation period? - APRIL 15th through May 31st
"During an evaluation period a college coach may watch college-bound student-athletes compete, visit their high schools, and write or telephone student-athletes or their parents. However, a college coach may not have face-to-face contact with college-bound student-athletes or their parents off the college’s campus during an evaluation period." -ncaa.org

• Attend a camp where you will get outstanding coaching/combine numbers and footage, right before or during this month and a half evaluation period. 
• Send current game footage and have two FULL games handy for those who request later down the road. 
• Get highlights from these camps and use them to add to your evaluation, especially if you are an under the radar prospect. 
• Maintain your academics and improve in ALL areas of the classroom and on your standardized testing, as any improvement shows your making a valiant effort. 
• Make workout videos in the weight room or at the field to add to your body of work for evaluation by the college coaching staffs/recruiting departments. 
• Email the college coaches DIRECTLY and show interest in their program and university as a whole, while beginning to figure out what you would like to major in for your college degree! 
• Create separation daily by outworking your competition and letting your actions speak louder than your words.

SEC FOOTBALL INSIDERS

We have added a new member to our SEC football insiders team at College Football Today in Michelle Miller, who will be providing exclusive insiders news directly from Texas A & M Universities campus! 

TAMU spring football is off to a fantastic start according to our new Aggies insider and with the likes of Jimbo Fisher in town, who boasts a 92-27 record as an NCAA head football coach, what else would you expect? With TAMU being able to average 36 points per game last season, producing enough offense was not the issue for the Aggies. 2019 NFL Draft RB prospect Trayveon Williams accounted for over 2,000 yards of TAMU's offense in 2018 and NFL Draft TE prospect Jace Sternberger had over 800 yards receiving through the air. The Aggies will look to third year junior quarterback Kellen Mond to step up and deliver in the clutch in the highly competitive SEC football conference this season, as he is closing in on 5,000 yards passing as a TAMU Aggie.

BIG XII FOOTBALL INSIDERS

Our Big XII football insiders stopped by Oklahoma, TCU, Baylor, Texas Tech and even made a case for UH football to join the BIG XII football conference at College Football Today. Check out our 2019 OU Sooners spring ball stop and more on our College Football Today 2019 CFB spring ball page by clicking HERE!

​We stopped by the former home of Baker Mayfield, who had a stand out rookie season with the Cleveland Browns in the National Football League. Kyler Murray is projected to go number one overall in the 2019 NFL Draft, just as Baker did in the 2018 NFL Draft. If we look at the production of both players, this should be a very sound pick for the Arizona Cardinals in the 2019 NFL Draftand they should be able to acquire more intricate pieces needed through a trade of Josh Rosenheading into 2019 NFC West play. Check out the video we made at Oklahoma that features the legendary Sooner Head Coach Bob Stoops!  Check out the video below or click on 2018 pre-season Heisman edit featuring Kyler Murray to read about 2019 OU Sooners spring football! (Kyler Murray received the most votes in Heisman Trophy history)
