The pressure to commit=more decommitments

I think we'll see more and more programs implementing a condition into the official scholarship offer relating to commitments. I know Mack Brown at Texas basically says if you commit to us then look elsewhere, we're pulling your offer. It's pretty cutthroat because people's minds do change, but the programs might start taking a more firm stance. Bottom line is the athletic departments will adapt and change with this new type of recruiting, just as much as the kids will.

The $hitty part about that is that coaches then recruit over these kids and ask the to grey shirt or move forward without them and the kid has no back up plan. It's a game that both the kids and coaches are playing and I don't see that changing.

Who flipped from UT last class?

Think his name was Dan Skipper. Offensive lineman from Colorado (I think). He decommitted after Pittman took the Arkansas job, and followed him there.

You ARE referring to the 2013 class, right?
