College Recruitment for track and field

<p>I guess I'm not really sure where to put this... New here, sorry! =) Anyway.... I'm a track and field athlete and I was just wondering what you guys think about kids' chances of running in college. I'd LOVE to go to University of Oregon, but they never reply to my emails, so I'm wondering if I should call them? What about coaches who say they want to stay in touch, but flake out on you and never reply or call like they say they will? Also, will visiting these colleges improve my chances of being recruited?</p>
