Both guys are D2 pulldowns...

#1 - I've sent him 14 STs and the scholarship. He says "i dont know enough about you or the program to say yes"...WOTS says he's a "very high priority" for a D2 sim with C prestige.  Keep pumping a few more STs into him? I know that if a recruit it SIMs #1, its pretty tough.

#2 - 15 STs and the scholarship. He says "Coach, while I appreciate the offer, the truth of the matter is that it's very unlikely I'll be playing for you next season. I have some options which are pretty appealing right now and I just don't know enough about Martin Luther to possibly say yes. I'll keep it in mind though in case my other options fall apart"...WOTS says "some attention from (D2 SIM w/ C- prestige) but is keeping his options wide open. Same question as #1, should I keep pumping money into him or is it a lost cause?

I am a B- and both guys are within 70 miles

#1 is a lost cause....cut and run

#2 you can win but it will cost you a ton of money, maybe another 10 ST and a more than a few  HV.  From 70 miles I won't even try unless you have around 4-6k left you are willing to spend on him.

Fantastic, so I'm screwed haha

yeah...it's hard to pull down guys in DIII that are considering DII schools
