I am new to this forum and need advise. My son is a 2011 graduate MIF and has been receiving emails and letters from D1 school since he was a freshman. One school has seen him play many times and when he talks to them, they seem to remember everything about him including the fact that they have been recruiting him since he was a freshman. He played at one of their 3 day showcases this summer and the coach told him that he played great and would be in touch. We still have not had any calls. Received one email saying that they would again be in contact.
Another D1 watched him play at a scout ball tourney this summer and called my son that night. He said that they are very late recruiting (staff changes) but they are really interested in my son. They told him to go first thing in the morning and have his counselor fax over his transcripts. Then he said he would be in contact with him. He also said that he would not be calling if they werent very interested in him. A Couple days later, my son called the coach, left a message, the coach calls him right back. My son asked if he received the transcipts and he said yes, we will be in contact with you. Then, the coach showed up to a couple games (Recruiting several players) and my son played awesome. Two weeks later, my son called the coach and the coach answered immediately and my son asked him if the transcripts were OK and the coach said they were great. (3.7 GPA) Him and my son talked like they were old friends. The coach asked him if he would be at the Arizona Senior Fall Classic and my son said yes and he stated that he would probobly not be there because they are pretty sure of who they would be recruiting. This was about 3 weeks ago. We have not heard anything yet. The last thing he said was that they were going to be in contact with him. What does all of this mean? We are in contact with another D2 school and not giving up on the recruiting process.
