You know it's more than just the decision too. It's a ton of pressure during this whole process. Let's say kid x we will call him is getting some interest for a few schools. So he starts to worry no offers are coming in. Then he gets an offer from a decent school. They have everything he is looking for but this guy from Alabama keeps calling him saying he loves him and wants him to come down for a camp. The kids parents can't afford to ship him across the country so he can't attend. But time is going on and the school that offered him is starting to take a lot of commits. So he goes and commits. Then all of a sudden every school talking to him offers. Now the kid could decommit and take a bigger school but that wouldn't be right.  Now let's look at the other side of that. Same situation except he waits cause everyone is saying the offer is coming. The school that offered fills up at his position and they pull the offer. Now no one else offers and this kid is out. You look at some of these kids from Florida commiting now and you see they have no offers one school offers and they blow up. Is wrong for these kids to use a commitment to lure more offers? Or is it wrong for the schools to chase down these kids after they commit. This process has huge implications on these kids lives... When I was 16 my biggest worry was what clothes was I going to wear not what decision I make today could effect the rest of my life
