What is the % of DI prospects that sign during November vs April?
My son had a lot of interest during July from the SEC Programs (his dream is to play in the SEC and of course in the Big Show). These guys have seen him play in several high level tournaments and showcases before and after July 1st. The calls during July were exciting and promising, telling me how talented he was and looking forward to having us come up for a visit in the fall, etc.
During August, her heard from them but not offers nor offers to visit from these SEC schools. However, he has had either scholarship offers or invitations for official visit from DII and other smaller DI schools.
Curious if his mom and I are looking too much in this with the timing of visits/offers? He has a good friend that he played with that has already committed to a big ACC school. That has us concerned that he might have to set his expectations out of the SEC and into a smaller DI school.
Thoughts? Should we be concerned?
Is it a big risk for him not to sign during November?
Thanks!
