Most of us as parents want to add at least a few more schools and kind of spread the risk, and most of the kids think they are juggling too many balls already.

I agree. My daughter was so ready to sign the NLI just because she wanted it to be over. If the parents are willing to do some of the work (talking finances, arranging visits) the recruit will probably be willing to keep a ‘maybe’ on the list, but the kids are bombarded with texts and emails from so many schools they just want to be able to say “Sorry, going to State U.” Even then we had D3 schools calling and saying “You know, you don’t have to go to that school you committed to. You can come here and play”
