Not new at all. It’s just a retarded concept. I understand that coaches put more offers out than they have schollies just because no one gets EVERYONE they want, but once a kid commits, that should be end of story. The coach shouldn’t come back and be like “yeah I know we offered you and all, but nevermind.” The only exception is if all spots are already taken

That is a 2-way street as I see it. What about the player who is committed to a university for a year and flips at the last moment and leaves the university high and dry. Too me frick it if a college has a shot at a 5* player or a player who may be a better fit sign him after you help place another kid to another college on your commitment roster.
It's a big business these days need to treat as such. Get the very best players you can every year. Sometimes colleges need to purge their commitment roster before LOI.

Kids decommit all the time as well, though. It’s not “end of story” for anyone until the NLI is in. And that’s by design.. it protects both sides. It allows kids to capitalize on their senior year performance and gives them a way out of any boneheaded decisions they make early. It allows coaches to take a “wait and see” approach with development, grades, off the field issues, etc.
An “offer” has really just been a statement of interest for a long time. It is what it is.
