The coaches don't seem to care to see through the reclassifying game. It stinks on a whole bunch of levels, but the truth is that all the coaches care about is your graduation year, period, end of story.
My son's 2017 team now has four committed players, and another two who are close. 5 of the 6 should be 2016's, and I can promise you none of the college coaches care.
This is becoming as much about simple supply and demand at the top end of the college food chain as it is about trying to game the system.
I agree coaches don't care. Look at the Turtles, they are best 2017 team and I hear have the most D1 commits (11 or 12) but I'm sure they are all held back.
Not really true at all. Out of the 9 turtles who are D1 commits, maybe 2 of them are held back.
Harvard is now permitting public verbals for rising sophs? It was a big no-no last year...apparently they had 6 or more non-public verbals in 2016 class. I actually don't see a commit list for Harvard 2016s where I looked. Not doubting it, but are the rules that there are no rules for 2017s and up?
