One more: if my coach calls and a prospect repeatedly says he has little interest in coming to my school, time to move on from him? Take him off call list?

If it's repeatedly so, then I usually will ... but some of those guys I'll keep on my list jic ... if they then don't get the offers they expected, some of them wind up signing out of desperation in March. If they go from blue (interested) to outright not interested, or if they accept a home visit and then show no interest at all, I do cut all of those guys immediately.

Boom! Just got my first commit. The whole time I was battling Cornell and Holy Cross for this kid. During the commit announcement, logos for both rival schools disappear and it comes down to Stonehill and a school I hadn't even seen on his list, Wake Forest! I'm thinking I DON'T HAVE A CHANCE with the ACC involved! But then he pulls the hat for the mighty Skyhawks. Let's go!
