Episode #192 — Keirsten Sires, Part 2

Getting recruited is one thing. Choosing the right college, coach, and program is something entirely different.

In Part 2 of my conversation with Keirsten Sires, Founder and CEO of 2aDays, we dig into the research every prospective college athlete and family should be doing before making one of the biggest decisions of their lives.

We talk about looking beyond the recruiting pitch—researching coaches, understanding roster dynamics, evaluating academics and career opportunities, and learning from the experiences of former student-athletes.

Keirsten also shares how 2aDays is helping families gain greater transparency into college programs and make more informed recruiting decisions.

“Leave your ego at the door. Blinders on. Focus on you.”

That may be one of the most important reminders in the entire recruiting process. This decision isn’t about where your teammates are committing, what looks best on social media, or impressing everyone else. It’s about finding the right fit for you.
