So where are all the 2023 commitments? I’m getting nervous for my DD and her teammates. I thought there would be more activity at this point. All I am still seeing and hearing are 2022 commitments. Why haven’t there been any big commitments from Maryland yet either? Hoping to see more activity soon!
I thought the same thing. There were so many 22 commitments this time last year. With that said, 22's could not go and do official visits with schools during recruiting where as 23's can. I think it's a slower process for the 23's because of that.
Just take a look at LaxBytes website and how Covid has impacted recruiting!
GIRL COMMITS
2022 YTD - 1546
2021 - 2619
2020 - 3445
BOY COMMITS
2022 YTD - 1263
2021 - 3610
2020 - 4228
Using the 2020 class as the benchmark since it was before Covid and the 5th year option, the 2021 Class was impacted but not nearly as bad as the 2022's. I'm afraid the 2023's will be impacted even more. College rosters are super fat right now. With covid's impact still being felt in the workforce, many players are choosing to take advantage of the 5th year for grad school. I think many schools will keep their 23 commits lean until they see what the transfer portal looks like after the 2022 season has ended.
