On the communication front, what would you recommend in terms of keeping the line open and providing updates once he's established an initial dialogue with the recruiting coaches?

Mine texted all coaches he was communicating with after every start to provide updates on his performance and his next start. He didn't whitewash things, when he sucked, he told them what sucked and what he planned to work on in the next week. They learned that not only was he a good pitcher (most of the time), but that he was self aware, mature enough to recognize his failings, and smart enough to realize he needed to improve.

He did each one individually, the message might have been the same, but he didn't group text.

I think he did occasionally offer an "opt out" — let me know if you want to continue to receive my updates — ut i'm not sure anyone ever cut him off.
