I recently got this response from a recruit. Thought it was interesting enough to share.
"Coach, it is always a momentous occasion to receive a letter from a program with similar credentials to that of Rhode Island. I would be remised, however, if I did not confess that there are a few other schools that have peaked my interests more favorably than Rhode Island. Still, I am open to any new and intriguing opportunity. A face-to-face meeting may be all that it takes to prove that my home should truly be at Rhode Island."
