The DM is likely a more creative generic invite as D1 coaches are prohibited from contacting individual players until August 1 of their junior year in high school (so August 1, 2024 for your son). Your son can contact whoever he wants, but they can't respond with anything more than a generic response which usually informs the recruit of the rules, points them to the team website, and (likely) upcoming camps.

From our family experience. A coach never reached out to my son via social media. My son listed information such as his travel ball team on his twitter page. Every coach that my son spoke with all called him directly after getting his contact information from his travel ball coach. Maybe others had different experience, but all communication my son had was from direct phone calls and direct text messages. Never a reach out via social media.
