There are never 1A and 1B situations.  In my time recruiting, you either decide you want a kid at a certain position, wish you had a spot for them at a certain position or there is something makeup wise that makes them a better fit for your program.

I have never understood 1A and 1B.  If you value speed more, that tends to be a qualifier.  It is just so rare to have athletes be even in everything from size to physical maturity to god-given attributes to mental acuity.

A HS that has kids constantly flipping isn't something really considered.  It's a school, it's not the kids you are building relationships with.  Nowadays, so many kids flip, I am not sure there is a school that has a history of kids not flipping in football.

All recruiting truly comes down to is a coaches' relationship with the kid.  You trust you have a better relationship than the people with shinier things to offer.  If you want the player, you will pursue him.
