Honest caveats

  • • These are governing-body eligibility standards — the minimum to be cleared to compete, not a recruiting or scholarship benchmark. Individual schools set their own, often materially higher, admissions standards.
  • • Coaches and admissions filter on the metric before they filter on character — but character, film, and outreach are what turn a filter-pass into an offer.
