Frequently asked questions
Are these basketball recruiting tools free?
Yes. Each tool is free to use in your browser. There is no account and no paywall.
Does FCP store my school list or emails?
No. Saved data stays in localStorage on your device unless a tool is browse-only. FCP does not receive your lists, logs, or offer figures.
Which tool should I start with?
Most families start with the recruiting timeline, then build a school list, prepare film, and draft intro emails before logging coach contacts.
Do these tools replace talking to college coaches?
No. They help you prepare. You still communicate with programs directly and verify aid and eligibility with each school.
