Comparing winners and losers brackets from different tournaments is absolutely ridiculous. Recruiting goes far beyond a single quantifiable metric.
Here's a question for discussion, why do (roughly) equally talented players on two separate club teams have hugely different recruiting experiences?
I'm curious as to everyone's thoughts. Is it connections or "pipelines" a club has with a certain school? Is it the events they attend? How much of a role do club director's and their reputation play? Clearly it isn't a simple meritocracy. And yes I know everyone has different goals, grades, etc, but I'm asking from a playing standpoint.
Club pipeline and director connections to college coaches is probably the answer.
Common LE director. You can stop. There is no one answer fits all. If the kid is good, he/she will be found. Support from HS coach, Club coach/dir and doing some showcases and prospect days in schools they are interested in plus grades grades and more grades and character.
