Too late for an early commitment?

Yes. Early signing is still 2 weeks away.

If they like him this weekend they will make an offer and he can verbally commit. Then wait for the paperwork like the rest of the early signees that will come a day or two before the first day of early signing. You then have a week to return the paperwork.

We also experienced a few recruiting ups and downs this summer due to changes in coaching staff. Very interested! Where'd they go? New school interested (one where coach ended up) then old/first school interested again (I guess when new coach found and dusted off the old files?) All part of the recruiting roller coaster ride.

The NLI early signing period this year is Nov 8 thru Nov. 15, 2006. I believe anything is possible as long as the NLI is signed during this time. Otherwise, you'll have to wait till next spring to officially sign. Hang on and try to enjoy the ride. Remember there are others who would love to be in your shoes getting contacted by anyone!

Bye the way did you get a chance to check out the school, new coaches. Does your son like the school? All the questions regarding a good "fit"?

Still Learning

My son has visited this school several times with my brother who is a graduate. He made an "unofficial" visit with the old coach earlier. He hasn't met anyone on the new staff. He did speak to the recruiting coordinator last week. As far as a good fit, I really think it would be. A ton of kids from his high school go there, plus it is a really big school with a lot to offer academically.

bbmomssr,

Sounds exciting! Hope you and your son have a great experience this weekend and keep us posted.

bballmomssr - You might want to PM MidloDad. He seems to know quite a bit about the schools in Virginia and could probably tell you anything you need to know about the situation.
