Rivals is charging high school athletes and parents $499 for an 'evaluation' by a Rivals scout. The fee includes a scouting report, grade, film evaluation, coach interview, and consideration to be ranked on their site.

1.04M kids played HS football last season. About 6,600 held a Rivals star rating… roughly 0.6%. That's not a talent gap. It's a capacity gap. Our scouts have always focused on FBS prospects, and FCS, D-II, NAIA and D-III kids rarely get their film watched. Rivals Recruits puts the same scouts, held to the same standards, on more of that film. You can pay for an evaluation. You can't pay for the result. Great resource and link for all college coaches and scouts. More opportunities for athletes. on3.com/rivals/rankings/rada…

We'll never have enough scouts to watch 1M high school football players a year. Rivals Recruits gives anyone a real shot at being seen. Ex: 2029 QB Colton Dabkowski bought an evaluation. Rivals scout @CodyBellaire spent hours on his film and talking with his coaches, then shared the eval with college staffs. A few days later Tulane offered. Est. Tulane scholarship: ~$390K over 4 years Rivals evaluation: $499 We want every recruiting staff, from FBS to D-III, to find more talent, and every athlete who's earned it to get found. No one should go unseen. on3.com/recruits/mission-sta… @AaronLemingNFL @Matt_Stepp817 @CJFWrites @IshmaelRJohnson @byBDavis @MikeLeslieWFAA @BigBlueDylan
