Franco’s Recruiting Guide cuts straight to the point to answer every high school ballplayer’s most pressing questions when it comes to the college recruiting process.  And this is not just generic recruiting information.  This guide is specifically designed and written for the high school baseball player about the college baseball recruiting process.  I’ll let Franco himself sum it up best:
