BEHIND
* Coach, honestly, the offer is great, but I don't know enough about you or the program to be able to say yes at this point.
* Coach, I just can't say yes right now...I'm still supposed to take a campus visit of another school. I should know more after that.
* Coach, I really appreciate you having enough faith in me to extend me a scholarship offer. I hope that you have enough faith to wait for me to visit some other schools - they really have made their programs sound great and to be honest, I'm not sure where I'll be next year.
* Coach, I'm really on the fence right now - there are a couple of other schools I really like right now too. I can't decide just yet.
* Coach, I'm really struggling right now - you have a nice program and the school is great, but it's such a big decision. I just need more time.
* Coach, it's down to a handful of schools - you're on my very short list, but I feel like I still need more information about the program.
* Coach, thanks again for the scholarship offer - I really like your program, but I have to tell you, I may still have some other options that I want to check out yet.
* Coach, you have a little more selling to do - don't get me wrong, you're close, but there are other schools that have indicated a possible interest in me.
* Hey Coach, I really love your program, but I feel like I need to give each program my full attention before I make my decision. I can't say yes right now. Sorry.
* If I had to give you an answer, I'd have to say no, but I just can't decide yet. I need more time. I'm sure you understand, right coach?
* It would be an honor to play for you at X, but I'd also be honored to play for a couple of other schools too. I'm sorry, I just need more time.
AHEAD
* Coach, I really appreciate you having enough faith in me to extend me a scholarship offer this early. That means a lot to me and unless something changes between now and the signing period, you've got yourself a player.
* Coach, thanks for the scholarship offer - I wish I could sign right now!
* Coach, you're my #1 school right now and if I could sign today, I would. Stupid WCAA and their regulations.
* Coach, you've said everything I needed to hear. I think X is the place for me. Can't wait to sign!
* Coach, you've sold me on X! Unless something changes between now and the signing period, you can count on me playing for you next season.
* Hey coach, your scholarship offer really means a lot to me. I can see myself at X next season. Hopefully nothing changes between now and the signing period.
* It would be a dream to play for you at X, but another school is really after me hard too. I'd have to give you a slight edge - right now.
* It would be a dream to play for you at X, I don't know why they make me wait to sign, but I guess that's what I have to do.
* You're my top choice right now. If I could sign today, I would! Thanks again for believing in me.
