This is such an ignorant statement. Club directors play a HUGE role in getting players committed. I can think of at least a few top 25 ranked 2024 teams who don’t have good (connected) club directors and they only have like 4 committed players vs other teams that they’ve beat repeatedly that have almost every girl in their team committed. Clubs with college connections are key.

Tell yourself whatever you want, the bottom line is college coaches watch players play and they take the best available players who are interested in attending their school and playing for their program. The coaches do not take players simply because a club director wants them to.
