Verbal commitments press

I don't recall verbal commitments getting so much press from teams, etc. in the recent past.

Usually that was reserved for actual signed commitments, since verbals really don't mean much. :?

What like ten or fifteen years ago? lol

Social media makes a difference, too.

Less than that, at least in my experience.

Kids have always done it, I just don't recall the actual teams/leagues, etc. making such a big deal out of verbals until the last few years.

Seemed it used to be when a commit was announced by the above it was due to an actual signing.

But then, the last ten or so years have gone by very fast !
