Thats true, Tambroni did that. But what about Harvard? The current Harvard coach honored all the prior commits that were made before he was hired. So maybe you should mention that unless you didn't know. Which you probably didnt.


The thread was implying that rescinding verbals was a very rare occurrence. I brought up the Penn St example as an effort to point out it happens more than we would all like to admit. And it should be noted, a verbal to the ivy admission process is different than the Penn St situation.


Tambroni did that because the former coach was reckless in his commits prior to his departure and the program was in very bad shape. Not all the verbals were rescinded, just reevaluated. You can't expect a new coach to wait 4 years before they bring their own pics in when trying to rebuild. Granted they had a tough year, but the program is on an upswing. Some very good recruits coming in next year. Same will most likely happen when others coaches leave. I would expect that the majority of recruits will be retained in most cases.
