Wait a minute, is this the way it works in recruiting? You have to talk to a kid 4-5 days a week in order to show interest? If anyone tried to talk to me that often I would block them. I would hate that job.

Unfortunately, yes.  It's a good reason why so many coaches hate recruiting.

A lot of coaches will just send some lame a$$ quote or a bible verse or a video clip, but yeah, almost everyday.  

Basically...they want their name at the top of your texts.

OK...I'll be the one to ask, why is Minnesota pulling away from him by reducing communication?

Are there grade issues?

Sounds like AD has lost the excitement of going to minny. Good chance that staff has picked up on that are moving another direction.

I have heard that PJ pushes really hard for a commit, like crazy hard.  And I bet it works a lot of the time and then some of those kids get back home and not being in his office and pressured probably helps them to sort of re-think things.  It seems like he has had a decent amount of kids that have decommitted.

Wasn't there a rumor they told a kid he couldn't leave a room until he had committed? Probably got exaggerated, but yeah their strategy seems to be push for as many commits as possible and live with a high decommit rate as they think it over.

I imagine it's something like: "You can commit right now or, if you leave this room without committing, we will not hold a spot for you (or you're off our board or something)."

Yeah...the old :"But, if you hang up, this offer will expire" routine

 
So...if the speculation is true about this situation affecting the recruiting of our other CB prospects, I wonder in what sort of time frame this will all play out.
