I do find it interesting all these young kids are committing to 6-7 schools...
Well you mentioned 9 '04s so at most there could only be nine schools.

9 '04's commit this past week.
Let's see how many actually play for the school they committed to.

"Getting" these young kids is funny because it's not like they are coming next year. A verbal commitment at age 14 means absolutely nothing. Doesn't prevent other schools from recruiting them, doesn't stop the kids from changing their mind and doesn't stop coaches from souring on a kid.
Dear God...you might want to check the post I started the thread with.
Actually I don't like the recruiting of 13 and 14 year olds. No idea how you came up with that conclusion. All I am saying is a verbal commitment at that age is meaningless. Really at any age but especially at 13-14.
It took all of 10 days to get our first 15 year old commit under the new rules. https://twitter.com/ReedKluender/status/1126945089341853696?s=19
For those that like records, I believe Anthony Cipollone is still the youngest commitment ever. 13 years 2 months to Vermont. And he's still committed there!
Top 4 based on my records:
Cipollone - Vermont - 1/2015 - 13 years 2 months (still committed)
Levis - Michigan - 2/2018 - 13 years 4 months 18 days (still committed)
Lucius - Minnesota - 8/2017 - 13 years 4 months 27 days (still committed)
Not sure if anyone between here and...
Wahlstrom - Maine - 1/2014 - 13 years 6 months (lol not so committed anywhere)
Does that make 40 commits for 20 spots for UW?
If he comes in 2022 there's 32 on the books and only 1 is a goalie. But there's no way Caufield, Turcotte, Holloway or maybe even Lindmark will still be there, so that pares it down to 28 or 29.
