How are there commits for the 2023 age group? Aren't the commits happening now for the 2022's. I heard about some commits happening for 05's at top universities.

Right school, right coach and right time for a good pal of mine's dd 2023 and she is all committed. Super stroked for her and all her hard work. June 15th was open season for 2023s and let me tell all of you; this is a very talented group of players and I mean that 100%. 2022s got know such luck and got in late this year. Keep in mine the top, top 2022s were highly sought after in 8th grade before new ncaa rules in place and most are already committed. Kicker's advice is spot on btw. I would also not fret if your kid is 2022 and has the desire to take her game to the next level. Their still is time for right school, right coach and right time. My pal told me the ID Camp took the deal to the next level. I now support ID Camp if dd wants it bad. Good luck everyone and remember, enjoy this time of your dd life. It goes fast.....

Ahhh Recruiting -- ain't it grand!

Open season (Direct coach contact) starts June 15th after your Sophomore year -- went into effect a couple of years ago. You will even see some 2021 class year folks are still committing for many reasons. We know 2022 girls that have been offered, but are waiting to be able to make official visits in the fall to see everything about the school and programs. Others committed without the official visit, but the school was high on the list that she wanted to attend regardless of soccer. ID camps are becoming bigger things for some other 2022's we know that haven't been offered, but want to play and they can choose which camps and see how the coaches work.
 
My take is that if you see any 2023’s committing before Aug 1st it was a deal that was struck before the rule change in 2019. I have a 2023 with many conversations since the 15th but the programs cannot discuss finances and packages until after the 1st of August which is why I call BS on any commits since the 15th of June. I suppose if it is a school and program that you would go to regardless of finances then it is possible.

The 2023 I know of had no deal struck prior to rule change. Player was highly sought after and had pick of the litter once June 15 hit. There are only a handful that I can think of. Don’t get me wrong, great kid, superb player who deserves it. I just thought they were still recruiting 2022’s.
 
Congrats to all the success stories - keep in mind though that coaching changes do happen on a regular basis and that can change everything from what you had agreed to years before you sign the NLI or show up for first day of preseason.

They are basically recruiting 3 classes at one time -- Out going seniors, rising seniors and rising juniors -- although the process starts sooner with sending coaches videos and emails to get on the radar before June 15th of your sophomore/junior year

I tell people it is like an engagement -- both parties have the option to leave the relationship at any point and time.

Excellent example :) I know one 2022 that got engaged three years ago to the coach and not really the school. Well, the coach left for greener pasture and she is now looking at a new date. That's why so many talk about school first and then coach. To each his own. Good luck to all the 20023s. Good timing for your class.
 
The classes of 2022, 2023, and 2024 got shafted by the NCAA when they allowed all current athletes an extra year of eligibility. That means that D1 coaches do not know how many scholarships they will actually have to offer, depending on if the seniors each year decide to come back. In essence, 5 classes of kids are competing for 4 years of scholarships. If you get a good offer, I wouldn't wait for a visit. The coach gets word that a senior is coming back that they didn't expect, and that offer will be gone.

So you would prefer to shaft the current college athletes? There is not a good solution here. The pandemic effected everybody.

You can always red shirt, no? Take your time and go five years to play four years of college ball. Competition is good for all of us. I have a very good pal whose dd went for the D2 killer free education over the grind of P5. Really smart girl who will be a Dr some day. She loves to play sport and study and got all her college paid for.

Have to be offered and granted a red shirt year. It’s not the athletes choice usually and is not a simple process, typically.
 
i was told they will look at 2023 especially if not a power 5 conference. if they can sign a player sophomore year its better. If they wait the big schools take what they want and they get scraps

The best solution would be to give the 2022, 2023, and 2024 classes what they gave the 2021's - a temporary increase in the number of scholarships allowed per age group.
