So I know there's been multiple posts on Blue Chip 225 and Top 205 and one or two on Future Stars 160 but they've all been pretty inconclusive. Now I need straight facts (not speculations, or what your best friend told you) on these camps, especially if anyone's been recruited and somehow one of these camps had a role in their recruitment. Thanks.

I went to FutureStars 160 and found it to be an ok camp. There was talent there, but it was extremely understaffed and for what you pay, you don't get enough field time. You only play 4 games total, unless you get to the finals or w.e. But the one thing it was good for me is the coaches of the teams are a coach for a college team, and then one of the kids that go to the college it's hosted at(last year it was F&M). You can use him as a source to go to if coaches want more info or something like that.

There is no sound answer to which camp is better. All camps have pros and cons, but remember that every camp or tournament or summer team is what you make of it.

Whatever avenue you select "Market Yourself"

1. Pick a camp, tournament or summer team
2. Contact coaches from schools you are interested in and give them your schedule
3. Play hard at the events especially off ball
4. Have someone film you
5. Between games approach coaches and introduce yourself, provide a portfolio(resume)
6. When you get back call the coaches and discuss what they thought

No matter what you select "Market Yourself" That is the key not which camp or tournament or team you pick.
