How do struggling seasons affect standing verbals?

My son made a verbal for his sport Nov of his junior year. The concern of his coach was what if the college backs out. When we asked this the answer was “There is not a snowballs chance in hell we would back out of a commitment we make to an athlete and we expect the same from that athlete as well”.
My sons sport is an equivalency sport and a small community so if a coach backs out on a kid it will get out and it will hurt that program for future recruiting. I have not heard of ANY coach backing out on an athlete in this sport, however I have heard of several athletes who have.
