Having 9 kids "highly interested" is about right if we want 3 committments. You need to remember that July is a busy, busy month for these kids from an AAU standpoint. They have an event just about every weekend and don't have much time to evaluate the schools they are interested. I would think we will see some visits and committments in the next couple weeks as kids want to make their decisions before school starts.
That is very accurate. We would not be in a good position if we only had two or three highly interested players if we wanted to get three quality players signed. You have to aim high in order to get adequate players.
Think of it as playing the lottery, if you don't buy tickets you can't win. It's great to think about what you want to spend the winnings on but if you don't play and buy tickets, you have no chance of winning at all. The more tickets you buy, the better the chance of getting some winning numbers.
