New Tool for Utah Hoops: Launching PrepBasketball.net & Owning Your Recruiting Journey
Episode Summary:
After a brief hiatus, Adam is back to discuss the state of Utah High School basketball, including the impact of upcoming transfer rules. The core of this episode is a deep dive walkthrough of the newly launched PrepBasketball.net (formerly Rankings.UtahBasketball.net rankings). Adam explains why he built this platform: to give Utah players a centralized, verified way to connect with college coaches without breaking the bank. From AI-powered search for scouts to free profiles that let players showcase their own film and GPA, this tool is designed to help players “own their journey.”
