You're simply not dealing in reality. Sounds great to make this a moral/ethical dilema, but it's just not the case. The rules are set up to allow a kid to verbally commit and still look around. It is an accepted practice by both recruits and recruiters.

Ya think he may have asked Watson to change his mind when he found out? You gotta be ok with losing a few if you want to recruit against the big boys. That's not breaking the rules. That's following the rules. Verbal commits mean dick.

You guys wanted to play with the big boys. Now you finally get someone who can recruit a little and you ***** about the rules. You better get used to it because most good players from STL don't want to play St. Bonaventure and the rest of the A 10. They want P5 exposure. That's just a fact of life

So you're telling me Ford is not trying to flip Watson right now? Come on. These guys are free agents until they sign the paper.

Wait what??

Martin is doing nothing wrong. In fact, almost every other team besides SLU would like their HC to be so aggressive on the recruiting trail.
