@LuvMyKids - great story and another example on how one decision can lead to big results.
I can tell you that one year prior to my son's verbal commitment, the school that he signed with, was not one of the ones that was on the radar.
It was around November 2019 when we first became aware of it. But we weren't digging deep on it at that time. We learned more around January 2020 and it wasn't until a few months later where things really heated up. Son verbally committed in October 2020.
Like you, I'm sorta questioning myself for not having it higher on the list sooner. But very glad it worked out in the end.
