No most you can attend for a fee. The invites get special treatment. They get extra days at the camp they eat at different places and times usually etc. My son just got his first 3 invites just in the last couple of months. Ms state sat down with him and talked to him the other day. They told him they will be watching him to see how he develops.He was playing TE but a legit sized TE moved to our school. And they moved my son to Inside Linebacker so im putting in work with him for the change.
Tell him if he serious about college to work and work more on his own, with his father, and then with other coaches on the side. And then work some more thats what I have my son doing. He dropped from a 4.79 to a 4.63 hes seeing results. As a sophomore he was second team All region and plays for a 7a school in hattiesburg ms. Where Brett Farve coached.
His 8th grade and freshman year I just paid and went like your talking about doing. His invites are to smaller school

Can’t offer much on recruiting visibility but make sure he puts in work on catching out of the backfield and trying to learn the subtleties of being a good screen back as well.

Does his high school have someone on stuff that helps direct them on the recruiting process? Do they have anyone coming by their practices?
Close friends son switched school a year ago. He was already very good but since switching schools he is at 18 offers.

7v7 in the summer won’t help. The 7v7 circuit is happening right now through the end of April. If he’s doing 7v7 in the summer it should be with his HS team.
I agree with many on here that camps are important. However, stay away from the mega camps (like SMU’s). I saw you were going to a Duke camp. That’s smart. There is also an Excellent camp at Trinity University in San Antonio in early June. Every single Ivy is there, plus schools like Richmond and Rice. And it’s a manageable size camp. My son got his first offer out of that camp.
At 5’9, 165, he’s unlikely to garner much P4 or other FBS. That’s just the reality. But there are plenty of FCS, D2 and D3 schools where he can play and prove himself. He should go where he can play and he should go for the degree as much as the football.

First, make sure he understands the meaning of the word... commitment. If he does, then tell not to commit to a school unless he means it.
Good luck.
