What Coaches Look for on Junior Day Visits
As a junior prospect at an AAAA program like Morgantown, you're likely to be invited to a junior day visit at your favorite college program. But what do coaches look for during these visits? Coaches want to see how you interact with their current players, coaches, and staff. Dress professionally and be prepared to introduce yourself confidently. During position drills, show coaches your technique and footwork. For example, if you're a quarterback, aim for a 3.0 second dropback time, a metric that separates top prospects from the rest. Be prepared to answer questions about your game, highlighting your strengths and weaknesses. Coaches also want to see your film, so be sure to bring a highlight reel that showcases your skills. By being prepared and showcasing your skills, you'll make a lasting impression on coaches and increase your chances of earning a scholarship.
