Honestly you all sound crazy. A kid commits to a school early and you all go crazy that its a bad decision. Again how does or did it hurt any of these early commits. They commit to a school that they really want to attend ,when its time to sign a NLI they either sign or they dont. "Top 25 ..have this luxury" to commit to a school they really want to attend, so all the other commits are going to schools they dont want to attend, thats just foolish. Again if you wait to commit to a school what makes you think you will have more options. Its sort of like the hold back discussions, is it an advantage , absolutely , will people try to knock your decision to do it , absolutely. Honestly wish I would have held mine back but at the time I would have been too proud or worried about people thinking my kid was "behind" in some way. |
