And it's up to the family to inform the college coach that they are verbally committed and not interested....if, being contacted.Coaches reach out to committed players all the time. There is no honor among thieves.

Sounds deep. Do share.......
Amen! What are we teaching our teenage kids and what are some of these clubs telling their parents about the college recruitment process.Honoring commitments or waiting until you are ready to commit are both valuable life lessons. Although it is correct that there is no honor among thieves I have to ask are we raiding thieves or strong young women?

Nothing deep. I clearly stole the phrase.

Tatiana Fung, Forward, Arsenal FC (CA)/Sunny Hills
Class: 2021
Commitment: Texas
While four years sit between now and the graduating class of 2021, head coach Angela Kelly continues to lead the way in early recruiting.
Tatiana Fung recently became the fourth player to commit for that year.
“I decided to commit to Texas because that has been my dream school for the longest time,” she told TopDrawerSoccer. “Their staff is one of a kind, they treat you like family and that's what I love about it. The facilities are beautiful and academics are the top priority. Angela Kelly's coaching style is exactly how I love it.”

The way Texas treats its athletes caught her attention, whether it was from the coaching staff or the university itself.
Academic choices, while farther down the road, intrigued her as well.
“I liked the kinesiology program and that you have tutors to help you if you are struggling,” Fund said. “They take pride in the classrooms and on the field.”
Four players have committed to join Texas in 2021.
Talk about early recruiting! Texas has fourth 8th graders committed. Probably why they aren't very good. You really can't accurately judge a player in the 8th grade. Most haven't really hit puberty or are just starting to hit puberty. She talks about kinesiology and hasn't even taken a high school biology class.
The coaches are watching early but few are as crazy as they are in Texas!
Probably they are very good - now. The question on the table is how good will they be in 4 years.

Before you know it, pregnant mothers of "desirable physical attribute parents" will be approached to commit their unborn kid to college. Since the kid is not born yet, no NCAA rules are broken and they can say and do whatever....
Promises of full ride and excellent education. No need for 529 plan or savings, for athletic parents who played at college or pro....
I would recruit Steph Curry's daughter right now. Or Jrue and Lauren Holiday's kid. The apple doesn't fall that far from the tree.
