University of South Carolina Gamecocks - 2010 NCAA National Champions. A year ago October accepted a verbal commitment from a South Carolina HS freshman catcher who hadn't played an inning of Varsity baseball. Yep....in the local paper and on their website. I believe there are rule changes coming to stem this tide.
A shout out to the local paper is permitted. However, posting anything on a college (team) website is clearly a violation prior to the official signing. Perfect Game posts college verbals, signings, etc...but they also add a disclaimer, especially on the verbals that come directly from parents/players.
Sorry bout that. It's not the school website. I should have said their "Independent Authority Gamecock Sports" website, the Big Spur.

I seriously can't believe there are 23 open spots at USC (according to this commitment/signee list for 2011)...there are going to be some dissappointed players when next year's spring roster comes out...
