Message: [QUOTE="miamicuse, post: 3887412, member: 7237"] First if all this may be a dumb question and I don't know how recruiting works. When you are the coaches and often times you have limited scholarship spots. Let's say for 2022 you have one PG spot and three PG recruits. Obviously there are many factors like some combo guards can play multiple positions, there may be players from the portal, some players you expect to leave may stay another years so many moving parts. But if you are actively recruiting three kids for one spot, and they are all not ready to commit yet and taking their time. Even if you have more than one spot available, if one commits the other two will move on. Does the coach do anything to help the school or the recruit by telling them how the door may open or close depending on the timing? Do they say we are waiting on a commitment and whoever commits here first will take the spot and we will move on after that? Do the coaches (or just JB) decide on a first choice and quietly let the first choice know, that he is our preferred player, and they are holding that spot for him until he decides no matter what (like Green?) or if the other two signal with the intent to commit, they will let their first choice know, to give him the right to refuse, if he wants that spot he can take it with a commitment right then, if not they will accept the other commitment. Would they do that? I doubt it because kids these days can't keep a secret they probably would have announced it on IG that cuse is holding a spot for me the next minute lol. What if the team come up with a new hashtag to keep some pressure on the recruits same as their #notcommited? Something like: Was a pleasure hosting (player name) this weekend, he is going to be a cornerstone to a real exciting class of 2022 contesting for a national championship #OneUncommitedSpotLeft #FirstCommitFirstBagServed [/QUOTE]
