OfferPath vs. SportsRecruits
$79 once, printed on the page. SportsRecruits is $99 a month.
Both give you a database of schools. The difference is what happens next: on a subscription platform the message goes through the platform and the bill arrives every month, and here the email leaves your own inbox and you pay once. If a monthly tool with messaging built in is what your family wants, that is a fair choice.
| SportsRecruits | OfferPath | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $99 a month, for as long as recruiting lasts | $79 one time |
| Two-year cost | Over $2,300 if he starts as a sophomore | $79 |
| Model | Subscription platform — messaging runs through it | Direct contact: you email the coach yourself |
| Who the coach sees | A platform message | Your son, from your own address |
| Where the division read comes from | Profile and self-reported measurables | Measured percentiles from a real roster census |
| What happens when you stop paying | Access ends | Nothing. It is yours |
| Can they promise an offer | No | No, and we say so on the homepage |
When SportsRecruits is the better buy
If your family wants everything inside one app with messaging built in, and a monthly bill is easier to justify than a one-off, a subscription platform is a reasonable buy. It is also the better fit if you are recruiting for a sport we do not cover — this is football only.
When this is the better buy
If you are willing to send the emails yourself, everything else is information: which of 743 programs are realistic, which of them lose a player at his position before he arrives, and who on that staff actually opens mail. We measured 59,346 college players to work the first part out. It costs $79 once.
Questions
Is this just a cheaper SportsRecruits?
The overlap is the school database. The differences are that the outreach leaves your own inbox rather than a platform, the division read is computed from measured college rosters rather than a profile, and you pay once instead of every month until he signs.
What does a subscription actually cost over a recruiting cycle?
$99 a month is manageable in any single month. If he starts as a sophomore and finishes as a senior, that is over $2,300 — which is the number worth comparing against $79, not the monthly one.
Do I lose access if I stop paying?
There is nothing to stop paying. It is one purchase, and coach data updates through your athlete’s recruiting cycle are included rather than sold as a renewal.
Can I try it before buying?
Yes. The Eval is free, needs no account and no card, and saving it gives you five named programs that fit him. Buy only if that list is worth $79 to you.
