@MidAtlanticDad posted:The offer experience for your son (a freshman who's already talking to P5 coaches) is probably going to be quite different than most other kids. If you've been lurking for a while, you probably are thinking about when is the right time to commit, more so than how. There are some disadvantages to committing as a freshman. Now more than ever, coaches are cutting kids loose after being committed for years. Conversely, a coach isn't going to dump a kid who's been committed for years to replace him with similar uncommitted talent. It's a good problem to have, but still a difficult decision.
Here are some members who may have faced this decision recently, in case they didn't read your post. @PitchingFan @IAmThatGuy @KLL @PTWood @baseballhs @Iowamom23 @Go44dad @d-mac @hshuler @PABaseball

Great thread. Thanks for that.
Definitely been following the craziness in NCAA-land with conference realignment, NIL, supreme court case, the portal and the JUCO pathway. Plus with a new NCAA president coming in and what the transformation committee is proposing (fingers crossed they do something about baseball equivalency scholarships) could be some really interesting changes.
