people are hoping you will eventually come clean and reveal what drugs you are on, and where they can find them :)

This has almost become funny to me. Do the math. If I offer a schollie and he declines i've spent what ? 110 dollars. If I call and i'm a backup option then my mouth gets all wet and i'm offering HV's and CV's and evals.

I offer the schollie and make the 10 dollar phone call at the same time. If the schollie is rejected I don't have to worry about the backup option or the left 4 messages and got a call back. Then I can either move on or keep on being a backup option. What is so hard to understand about that??? If he keeps the schollie open then I know for sure he will be mine. If I want. I won't spend thousands to chase something I won't get if the phone call says i'm a backup option if my big schools don't pan out.

This actually makes the most sense of anything he's said in the thread.  There probably is something to the idea that if they keep the scholarship offer open they can be pulled down for 5-10 scouting trips and if they reject it initially but give you a backup message they could take significantly more.  I've definitely used over 20 before.  So I guess in that sense you can figure out how expensive a pulldown will be with the scholarship.  On the other hand, that guy that cost me 20+ is now scoring over 20 PPG with over 8 RPG for me and is by far the most dominant post defender I've ever coached, including guys on my D2 team.

the whole purpose IS to find out if they're a backup option.  and the coach call does that for $10

and if they ARE a backup option then HVs and CVs dont cost anything.  because the recruit doesnt accept them

Sweet ryrun, i'll keep recruiting my way and ya'll keep spending your bucks, or whatever your beating.... lol

Or he tells you how bad his mamma hates that crap when someone shows up. Ka Ching!!!

Maybe this is why jbrewman has played a bunch of seasons but almost never stays at the same school more than 4 or 5 seasons...  Once the residual effects of the previous coach's efforts (existing players, prestige advantages) wears off his crappy recruiting strategy becomes untenable.

The big problem I have with this thread is that if a guy rejects your scholarship offer it's possible you could still sign the guy.

Western Michigan would be a great example. New Jersey Tech would be the other. 

Western Michigan is only 4 seasons...  New Jersey Tech is 7, a career high for you.

So i'm living off the laurels of the previous coaches?
