GMTM: The First Step in Collegiate Recruiting, According to Kuyper College Coach


In the fast-paced world of collegiate athletics, finding the right talent can be a coach's biggest challenge. Sifting through countless databases, attending endless showcases, and trying to connect with prospective athletes can be a drain on time and resources. But according to Tyler Whitcomb, coach at Kuyper College, there's a game-changer: GMTM.


"GMTM should be the 1st Step for any collegiate coach recruiting," Whitcomb states. His endorsement highlights the platform's efficiency and comprehensive nature, addressing several key coach pain points. "I can immediately find, connect, and gauge interest from athletes that fit my recruiting criteria," he explains. This ability to quickly identify and engage with qualified prospects is crucial in the competitive recruiting landscape.


Whitcomb's experience underscores the value of a centralized platform. He says, "It's the only product I can use for all sports and see information from multiple databases I previously paid for." This consolidation of resources not only simplifies the recruiting process but also offers significant cost savings. Instead of subscribing to multiple specialized databases, coaches can access a wealth of information across various sports within a single platform.


The ability to "gauge interest" is another critical feature highlighted by Whitcomb. Understanding an athlete's level of engagement is essential for effective recruiting. GMTM's tools likely provide insights into which athletes are actively exploring opportunities and which might require further outreach. This allows coaches to prioritize their efforts and focus on the most promising prospects.

Whitcomb's testimonial speaks to the transformative potential of GMTM for collegiate recruiting.


By streamlining the search, connection, and evaluation process, GMTM empowers coaches to work more efficiently and effectively. It allows them to focus on what matters most: building relationships with potential recruits and ultimately, building a winning team.
