It will be interesting to see the strategy teams use around early visits. I think spring visits could be really useful for locking in kids who are already heavy leans. But if you're going after someone like Tuli, letting him officially visit so early might be a death sentence in his recruitment. He visits UW, loves it, makes them his early leader. But he starts taking unofficials to USC every weekend and pretty soon its been 6 months since he's visited UW. With no way to get him back on campus, we're fucked.
If you let someone from out of state visit early you almost need to be sure he's going to commit.
