C/o 2017 Recruit

I know some guys who went on to play at the FBS level who swore by the Velocity Sports Performance for their speed training. Others I know say it's a bunch of bullshite. It might be worth it if you think you can shave a couple hundredths off his 40 time.

Other than that, a really solid work ethic goes a long, long way. As previously stated, take the time and spend the money to send him to the football camps that teams put on in the summer time. I earned several scholarship offers when I was in HS through camping, granted those were AA programs but sometimes if coaches can see what you can do in person it will sway them if they're on the fence.

ETA: Also make sure he takes care of his business in the classroom. I played with several kids in HS who were D-I talents but either went D-2 or never went to college because their grades were abysmal, I also saw the opposite with 2 kids who went to West Point and GT because they had okay talent but great grades. If a school is looking at two comparable kids and kid A has a 3.7 GPA and kid B has a 2.2, it's really a no-brainer for most coaches.

From that little bit of tape, I really like his striking and open field tackling... Reminds me a lot of our Mike Hilton

From just THAT, I'd think he would be seen as more of a traditional SS recruit because it really doesn't show him in coverage

I guess get him to work on improving his back pedaling and bailing out technique... But I mean hell he's a sophomore, he'll get that at school

My cousin has been recruited since his sophmore year. Basically what he did was go to the regional Nike camp. Then in the summer he went to as many open college camps as possible. At the open college camps, coaches typically flag athletes that they want to invite back for their closed camps. Check into a recruiting service to get your son's tape out. Maybe you can contact the recruiting coordinator at whatever universities you would like to see your son go to, however they are flooded with people trying to do the same thing. Also make sure your son keeps working out after the football season, one of the biggest things that helped my cousin was getting a trainer. Now I'm not sure what position your son plays, but my cousin plays linebacker. He was invited to Oklahoma's linebackers only camp and he didn't go. If your son is invited to a position only camo, make sure he goes.
