The problem with Rebels is they have a bad image (whether its right or wrong I'm not close enough to know). College coaches generally don't want to deal with them (verbatim from a coach at a vg program). Sure some kids will get recruited, but if you're a college coach and call comes in from BBL, Madlax, Hawks, Express, Crabs, 91, Shore and even Igloo, etc.. you'll take one of those kids over a Rebels kid (all things being equal) just b/c those coaches are less obnoxious is the rumor. There are great players at every club so no need to deal with the BS.
Having a kid who has gone through the recruiting process (he doesn’t play for rebels) this statement is not accurate. College coaches do not care what program you play for. They care about your skill set, needs, academics(can you gain admission) and if you are a good fit for their program. That’s it. Whether you played for Rebels, BBL, Primetime, means nothing to them.
If anyone is expecting their club coach to “get them recruited” you will be very disappointed. It’s your kids job to get himself recruited. Not your club coach. It’s a lot of work and a crowded field. If your kid works hard at getting recruited he will have success.
