Finally! There is a Practical College Recruiting Book for Parents and Athletes!Hello! I'm Coach Matt Rogers...Your College Recruiting Coach! If you are reading this you probably have an athlete who loves their sport and has the big dream of playing in college. 30 years ago, that was me. However, neither of my parents went to college. My high school coach had no interest in helping me, so we were clueless to what to do and what we could do. If it wasn't for a lucky phone call that my older brother made to a college coach late in my senior of high school, I probably would have never played in college. This is why this book is so personal for me. I don't want any parent or athlete to struggle with their recruiting journey like I did. I have now been a college Head Coach, Director of Athletics and College Scout for the better part of 25 years, and I have helped over 4000 student-athletes accomplish their dream of playing in college. I knew there were hundreds of thousands of other families who also needed the help, so I made the decision to sit down and share the stories, advice and simple strategies that have enabled me to make such a difference in so many young people's lives. I have broken the book into the 12-steps of college recruiting that I thought were the most important. As a family, you can read a chapter at a time, follow the simple action steps at the end of each chapter, and you will soon be communicating with the right college coaches at the best fit schools for your athlete in no time...and with CONFIDENCE! At the end of each chapter, I asked a college a group of my college friends to share their thoughts on that particular part of your recruiting journey. I've also included stories about families who did it the right way and those who ran into obstacles that I hope to keep you from experiencing. What's great is that you have direct access to me while you are going through the process at coachmattrogers.com. I will always happy to provide additional advice and direction! Don't just take my word for it. Here's some thoughts from my collegiate friends: "This is the playbook every young athlete needs. Developing a strategic plan for the recruiting process is essential, and Rogers' book is a detailed outline from someone who knows the process inside and out." -Lori Chalupny Lawson, NCAA Division I, U.S. Women's World Cup and Olympic Champion "I can't imagine how daunting the recruiting process must be for parents without their own student-athlete experiences such as mine. Matt's labor of love for young people wanting to achieve their student-athlete dreams shines through in this easyto-follow recruiting process. It's THE playbook."-Quinn Wirth, Former NCAA Division 1 Basketball Player "Significant Recruiting is well written with some great stuff for the high school athlete trying to find a college fit."-Mark Edwards, 3x NCAA Men's Basketball Coach of the Year "Matt Rogers has artfully synthesized nearly 30 years of coaching and recruiting to deliver a practical guide to navigate the complexities of college selection. He is a master relationship builder, as demonstrated by thecommentary from a diverse group of educators he has collected throughout his career."-Rich Dunsworth, President of the University of Ozarks "Significant Recruiting refreshingly puts the power back into the hands of the student-athlete while teaching its readers that you must want it, you must own it and you must be accountable."-Emily Brydon, World Champion Alpine Skier, 3x Winter Olympian, Founder & CEO of Emily Brydon Youth Foundation

Hound Dog Taylor made guitars howl and hips shake. A founding father of lo-fi blues rock-that gritty, stripped-down sound played on cheap guitars with no bass-Taylor and his band The HouseRockers played loud, wild gut-bucket boogie that was raw and ferocious, earning them a reputation as "e;The Ramones of the blues."e; Though his influence continues to be heard in the music of contemporary musicians such as Jack White, The Black Keys, and others, Hound Dog Taylor's story has never been fully explored. Off stage, his life was as wild as his music. From his childhood in 1920s Mississippi to his final years in 1970s Chicago, he was surrounded by racism, crime, and violence. The threat of bloodshed was constant, whether from the Ku Klux Klan, South Side gangs, or even fellow musicians. From drunkenly slicing off his sixth finger with a straight razor, to becoming the artist whose music launched the now-legendary Alligator Records, Goodnight Boogie is the first in-depth biographical study of the Blues Hall of Famer whose life was as compelling as his music. This is the story of a brilliant and unforgettably original musician who struggled for success while fighting to survive. Foreword written by Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys.
Recounting his own history, Matt Rogers explores the question of how, in a world of suffering, we can call God good. This challenging question can manifest itself as a conspiracy of doubt and depression, so that our emotions and our intellect come under attack. Will God deliver us through this distressing journey?
