Message: [QUOTE="BlazeOrange, post: 1213690, member: 683"] Spitballing here, but maybe the kid thought he was more marketable as a Syracuse commit than a player with only one minor offer. Now, he might be getting interest from someone who says they won't/can't proceed further while he's verbally committed elsewhere. Or it could be the other school that's already offered is applying some pressure. Another thing about the timing is that high school seasons are ending right now and he may not have focused on next year while playing this year. It would seem to make more sense to get the word out that he's available while schools could still scout his games, but some players avoid the in-season distraction. Or it could be as simple as he liked being referred to as a P5 commit in his team's media coverage - I'd imagine it's useful in getting regional award consideration. [/QUOTE]
