Mike Usry
Recruiting Coordinator
Mike played Division I football at Georgia and South Florida, so he knows the recruiting process from the inside — what college coaches are actually evaluating, and what it takes to earn a spot at the next level. As Top Gun National Walker's recruiting coordinator, that's the work he owns: building each player's target school list, getting her video and profile in front of the right coaches, and managing the outreach and follow-up that turns interest into offers. Mike treats recruiting as the team's responsibility, not something families have to figure out alone. He has helped athletes across multiple sports secure Division I scholarships, and brings that same hands-on advocacy to every player on the roster — finding the right athletic, academic, and cultural fit for each one.
