Update: The kid has committed. Been committed for over a week now. I guess he will announce when the time is right. I am not going to spoil his announcement. That is not my thing.

Honestly I don't have that info. Just got the we got a commitment text. I rechecked this morning and was told he committed but waiting on the announcement. They usually don't like position or kid to get out. It leads to online detectives going to work to break the story first. Because there is very few uncommitted offers out right now. It doesn't take long to do process of elimination. I do know they have several "secret commits" this cycle. Trying keep kids on the DL because a ton of P5 have took notice of UNT recent success. I interviewed a current commit last night and he even mentioned that kids are taking notice. That once your get a UNT offer your recruitment will take off. Just this morning we had a "secret commit" flip to tech. He had been committed to UNT for over 2 months. But it obviously wasn't a hard commit.

Interesting, and totally makes sense. Shadow Recruiting is what I've heard that approach referred to. The kid that flipped, was it the Ryan HS kid who is currently at a JUCO.

Very good take.  It is amazing how well our staff identifies talent before they are rated.  Once we offer, the offers started coming out of the woodwork.  May be time to institute DD's stealth mode.

P.S.  Thanks for understanding the memes and gifs were all in good fun.
