Meet Coach BT
Experience & Perspective
Burl Toler III brings over a decade of experience in college football as a coach, recruiter, and coordinator, spanning both FBS and FCS programs across multiple conferences. His career includes roles coaching special teams, running backs, and wide receivers, as well as serving as a recruiting coordinator and pass game coordinator. Prior to coaching, he competed as a collegiate student-athlete at the University of California, Berkeley, and later played professionally and internationally.
This breadth of experience gives Burl a rare, inside view of how programs actually evaluate athletes, allocate scholarships, manage recruiting boards, and make long-term roster decisions. He understands not only what the recruiting process looks like on paper, but how it functions in real time — under pressure, within budget constraints, and inside highly competitive environments.
How He Works & Who He Serves
Burl’s work focuses on helping families move beyond confusion, misinformation, and emotional decision-making toward clear, strategic action. Rather than offering generic advice or chasing trends, he helps athletes and parents understand where they truly fit, what opportunities realistically exist, and how to position themselves intelligently within the recruiting landscape.
His approach is direct, disciplined, and grounded in experience. Families who work with Burl gain clarity around priorities, timelines, communication strategy, and development focus — allowing them to make confident decisions with fewer surprises and less wasted effort. This work is best suited for families who value honest assessment, thoughtful planning, and accountability in the pursuit of long-term athletic and academic success.
