Every kid I’ve seen who was a serious recruit at Harvard was also a serious recruit at the others. The schools that do have EA/ED like Yale and Columbia take the vast majority of their athletes in that round. If I were your parent, I’d tell you to pin the Harvard coach down. How serious of a recruit are you if Yale and Columbia are not also very interested? You stand a chance of not getting into any of the schools if Harvard is not articulating a firm commitment. The coach should be able to look at your grades ad scores and all but guarantee you’ll get in for you to forgo the early round as an athlete.
