I think @coffeeat3 might have an Ivy rower (though I might be misremembering).

My son – different sport – would tell coaches their school was “one of my top choices” for most of the recruiting journey. When it got down to the wire, and things shook out (he had offers from some schools, and knew which schools had less interest in him), and there was a clear first choice, that’s when he said “you are my first choice, and if you make me an offer I will accept on the spot”. But also, it was when my son had an “exploding offer” from another school and knew his 1st choice therefore had to make a decision-- they were either going to make him an offer, or they knew they would lose him to the school with the expiring offer.
