Committed?

That is the Chizik policy. "Your word has to mean something." Chizik said. Sort of rings hollow doesn't it?

In the case of Gene, his words do mean something. It's not specified that this 'something' is 'don't trust a gawddammed word I say'

I don't have a real problem with the way things are. These are "Verbals". And everyone knows they are non-binding. Plus these are 18 year old kids. I would rather that a verbal commitment gets changed before signing day rather than have the kid sign and then transfer somewhere else because they did not like it.

With all the de-commits, both for and against us this year, somebody needs to come up with a better term to describe the 'verbal acceptance of a scholarship offer.' Committed just doesn't reflect the flexibility that athletes seem to want in this day and age.

These HS kids do a better job of staying committed than married people...
