If coaches are still recruiting football players up to LOI signing day then what's the point of committing?

Primarily because parents and players a) fearing no better will come along, wanna secure an offer in hand, b) wanna brag to friends and family, c) know how the game is played and in turn, 'play the game.'

Also, it is not unusual for a big program to drop 'commits' when performance wanes or they need to make room for a bigger commit. Happens many times, every year.
