Soul Body Sports — The Truth About Getting Recruited

Every day a family waits…
Every day an athlete “hopes” a coach will find them…
Another, less talented but better-prepared player moves ahead.

They take the roster spot.
They earn the scholarship.
They shape their future while others fall behind.

Because in today’s college football landscape, the right preparation beats talent.
Strategy beats guesswork.
And guidance beats doing it alone.

That’s why I created Soul Body Sports — a full-service, one-on-one college football recruiting program built to give athletes the roadmap I never had.

 

ABOUT COACH JOHN CORCORAN

Founder, Soul Body Sports — College Football Recruiting

Who I Am

I grew up in the San Fernando Valley in a hardworking, mixed-culture family where discipline, humor, and resilience were part of daily life. Sports shaped me from the beginning — football especially — and I earned championships and All-Conference honors at Crespi Carmelite High School, Moorpark College, and Chico State University.

But my journey wasn’t perfect.
I made major mistakes in my own recruiting process — choosing schools for the wrong reasons and learning the hard way about fit, culture, and preparation. That experience stayed with me and became the foundation of my life’s mission.

For the past 15 years, I’ve worked in college football recruiting, including 13 years with NCSA, guiding tens of thousands of athletes and families across the country. I’ve seen what works, what doesn’t, and why so many talented athletes fall through the cracks.

I founded Soul Body Sports to change that.

Today, I provide one-on-one, personalized recruiting coaching that helps athletes build confidence, communicate like leaders, find the right collegiate fit, and create real opportunities—not just hope for them.

This isn’t a corporate program.
It’s personal.
It’s hands-on.
And it’s the guidance I wish I had at 17.

Let’s build the right path for your athlete’s future.

My Recruiting Story

I’ve spent the last 15 years in the trenches of college football recruiting, helping families navigate one of the most competitive and confusing processes in all of sports. For 13 of those years, I worked with NCSA, where I evaluated athletes nationwide, spoke at major events, and guided tens of thousands of families through every stage of the recruiting journey.

I’ve seen the entire landscape up close — from high-level prospects to overlooked athletes fighting for a chance. I understand how college coaches think, what they look for, how decisions get made, and why some athletes get opportunities while others don’t.

Through this experience, I learned the truth:
Most families aren’t failing because of talent — they’re failing because they don’t have real guidance, a plan, or honest evaluation.

That’s why I created Soul Body Sports — a hands-on, one-on-one recruiting program built around clarity, honest assessment, weekly action steps, direct communication with coaches, and customized school-fit strategies.

I help athletes avoid the mistakes I made…
And give families the structure, confidence, and direction they’ve been missing.

With the right plan, the right communication, and the right fit — opportunities open.
This is the blueprint that works.

Why I Founded Soul Body Sports

College football recruiting has become:

• Impersonal

• Overwhelming

• Confusing

• Mass-produced

• Packed with misinformation

Families are often left guessing about:

• Where their athlete fits

• How to communicate with coaches

• Which camps matter

• How to get evaluated

• What opportunities are realistic

built Soul Body Sports to fix that.

This is not a cookie-cutter program.

It’s a personalized, one-on-one coaching experience focused on:

✔ Honest evaluation

✔ Complete athlete development

✔ Academic & athletic alignment

✔ Coach communication mastery

✔ College fit strategy

✔ Scholarship & financial planning

✔ Mental training & visualization

✔ A proven, step-by-step roadmap

 

Every athlete has unique goals.

Every family has unique needs.

Your recruiting plan should reflect that.

• My full attention

• My personal expertise

• My honest evaluation

I don’t hand things off to assistants.

If you work with Soul Body Sports — you work with me.

My Journey: From Athlete to Coach to Your Family’s Guide

My story starts on the fields of the San Fernando Valley, where I grew up playing every sport I could get my hands on.
Football became my foundation, shaping who I was as a young man.

I played with and against elite talent — future NFL athletes, national standouts, and some of the best competitors Southern California ever produced.

But here’s the truth:

Even with talent, I struggled in the recruiting process.
Not because I wasn’t good enough…
But because I didn’t have the guidance, the mentorship, or the roadmap.

I made decisions based on hype, division level, and assumptions — not on fit, opportunity, or long-term success.

And it cost me.

That experience taught me the most important lesson in recruiting:

Talent matters.
But clarity matters more.
And fit matters most.

15 Years. Tens of Thousands of Athletes. One Mission.

After my playing career, I dedicated my life to helping athletes avoid the mistakes I made.

I’ve worn many hats — investigator, bail bondsman, bartender, business owner — all of which sharpened my ability to read people, communicate clearly, and navigate high-pressure situations.

But nothing compares to the last 15 years…

For over a decade, I served with NCSA, speaking to and helping tens of thousands of families in stadiums, gyms, classrooms, events, and personal consultations.

I’ve seen:
• Every type of athlete
• Every kind of parent
• Every college level
• Every success story
• Every heartbreak
• Every pitfall families fall into

And I learned exactly what separates the athlete who gets recruited from the athlete who gets ignored.

Why Soul Body Sports Exists

Because recruiting has become impersonal.
Corporate.
Confusing.
Overwhelming.

Families are left alone to guess their way through the biggest decision of their son’s life.

I knew young athletes deserved more.
More clarity.
More honesty.
More mentorship.
More personalized coaching.

So I built Soul Body Sports around what truly matters:

1-on-1 guidance.
Personal evaluation.
Athlete development.
Mindset training.
Communication mastery.
Academic & athletic alignment.
College fit strategy.
Scholarship planning.

This is not a cookie-cutter service.
It’s not a call center.
It’s not hype.
And it’s not false promises.

It’s the most personal, customized, athlete-focused recruiting program available.

Because your son doesn’t need another website.
He needs a coach, a mentor, and a guide who has lived it.

If You Want the Guidance I Wish I Had…

If you want your son to avoid the mistakes I made…
If you want him to be evaluated honestly and coached personally…
If you want a clear roadmap instead of confusion…

I’d be honored to work with your family.
