The part I like is adding depth to recruiting. It's frustrating when say you are sitting at #1 with a soft commit and on the next advance the kid hard commits to someone else and you are sitting there with your thumb in your ass. Maybe if they gave you one last shot to convince him. Other than signing day you really don't see teams really left in the dark.
I don't really mind them switching their minds up, especially like this year for instance with PSU. Everything else not factored here, but just for the coaching changes at OSU and PSU. New coach at OSU came in and sweet talked a few PSU recruits into coming over there while PSU was in limbo with their new coach yet to be determined. These kids love to be sweet talked and promised the world and adding this into the game would really add depth to something that has been stale for the most part.

Losing recruits like that are frustrating, I mean they were so interested they gave a soft commit to only then commit somewhere else and you have no chance to even talk to them again and your SOL. This again can help with that part of recruiting and add new layers and strategies along with it.
