So a list of verbals might not tell you as much about a club as a list of players that are actively participating in the recruitment process.

If a kid is holding out for a better school then he is not on the top of that schools list. And if you are implying that the early verbals are not picking their top schools this seems unlikely. The best players get picked first this is a fact. If a kid is a top player he will be calling the shots. There is nothing wrong with waiting for a certain school to notice you but to imply these kids are top players is not true. If you are a top player and you want to got to ND or UVA then you could or would Verbal today. If you do not have this option yet you are not the top of the top.

Can't wait to see this NL team with secret verbals play FCA on Sunday. They should dominate. Wonder if they will do it secretly?
