I said it on the other thread, this may be best for both sides. Coaches can always shut it down if/when they feel the need to. Meanwhile, with him wavering like he is, we certainly have nothing to apologize for when we talk to other CB targets..
TBH, I think Brownlee's "100% committed but listening" comment works in everyone's favor. Coaches can always set a deadline later as the DB group and class as a whole fill up if they grow concerned.
