To a certain degree I have no problem with giving players a do-over.  High schoolers for the most part are too inexperienced to sort through all the factors in choosing a school. A lot of what they get is propaganda. Most college coaches are trying to sell their program. Players can easily be swayed by high school & AAU coaches, many of whom that try and steer players toward certain schools and away from others. And while many parents are well prepared to help their child make a rational decision due to their being involved in the sport, others have no experience in the process and with nowhere to turn to for totally unbiased guidance are left trying to decide who to believe based on little more than a gut feeling.  Under those circumstances I don't think it is too much to allow them a second chance.

On the other hand college coaches  would be faced with the problem of having player(s) leave after recruiting for the next season was virtually  finished. I wouldn't want to be a coach who, after signing 2 players for my next year's team and thinking I have 12 players to find out in December that 3 players were leaving.
