Betro's got a good rating and a solid upside, so I am excited. But his commitment makes me wonder. Is the staff pushing hard for specific verbals this week? It just seems like more than a coincidence that all of these commitments are coming at the same time. Maybe it is contagious enthusiasm, but I doubt it.
I understand if the staff is pushing guys to get on board. However, I always fear the hard sell with these kids...especially ones with options. Kids and families may question committing this early. While these guys have verballed, other schools will try to poach and at least one BC guy will go somewhere else.
Or maybe I am wrong and maybe Addazio is just hitting the right kids at the right time. Either way, I just want him to build on this and sign a great recruiting class.
