		<description>The COACH is the one that recruited the person, I personally know that if I was recruited i would go for both the school and coach. Mainly coach though because they are the ones who will make or break the team. The team will be nothing with out a good coach, and once your used to the coaching style of a particular person its hard to get accustom to another. They should make the rules that the recruits are picking coaches not schools.</description>

		<description>Unless the National Letter of Intent program is changed, I don&#039;t believe any signed recruit should be able to leave.  If you aren&#039;t going to follow the rules in place, what&#039;s the point of having them? The program states that you are committing to a school, not a coach.  In practice, this may prove to not be true, but this just means that the rules have to be changed.</description>

		<description>Absolutely.  The coach is a huge reason why a recruit ultimately picks a school.  That is the same person they have spent months and years getting to know and developing trust with.  How could a commit possibly be forced to stick with a school when they have no clue or influence over who the next coach will be?  What if they simply do not get along with the next coach?  What if the next coach is someone they had already deciced they did not want to play for while they were coaching at another school?  I think it would be foolish to force a student-athlete to stay at a school when a significant reason for the commitment is now gone...</description>
