Thank you sir. But I'm sure in my case, when one's budget has diminished, it won't matter if he becomes interested, because I have nothing to give him but maybe some guaranteed minutes and starting job.

Well, if he didn't reject your schollie offer, that's a plus. He very well could have. And if you don't have alot of money, you might as well offer minutes and a start. If he's that good, he should be starting/playing anyway. I don't see that you have much to lose.

A couple recruiting questions because I have seemed to have lost the touch landing the 'all-americans'. What are some things you guys have tried to pull down a prospect listing you as a back-up? I have tried minutes and HVs, but its all been rejected. I'm afraid to try a CV because I heard a while back there's a chance it gets rejected but you don't get the money back (is this true?). Also, I can't promise a start because I have 3 seniors (could promise a start as soph, but that option is not available yet).
Also, how many phone calls/letters do you veterans send per cycle for guys you really want?
Are schollies good to offer early when you are still a back-up to get them interested, or better to wait until they have dropped to you to offer one?

Home Visits are the ones that you might get canceled and not get your money back. Because you got on the plane and went to his house, and he was not there. So you spent your time and cash, but got no effort.

Campus Visits will always be refunded if refused.

At least that is my understanding.

If anyone has specific questions about DIII recruiting I'd be happy to offer my limited know how. Each coach has their own style but generally I think there are some really dumb things to avoid. Especially for new coaches who will all have low prestige. Many other coaches would be happy to help I am sure if you site mail them.

email like, 60 kids, and snipe em :) you will get pos or neg feedback

Just to follow up. I had 5 open scholarships and offered 5 and landed my guys. Won a battle for one of them. Think I did well. Don't know what the tip on rating advisers means though... And clarification there?
