DD verballed last October as a sophomore. She got a very good offer from a local school, not quite at her academic level but a decent softball program and she really likes the school. The coach is a great guy and it seems like a good fit.
Since then, she has taken her SATs and gotten a very high score, and her GPA is over 4.0. Several much better academic schools have shown interest but will not "officially" offer her unless she decommits from her original school. Her travel ball coach told us that one of the new schools will not even allow her to visit while she is committed, because the two schools are near each other and cross-town rivals. They want her to decommit, but will not discuss an offer until she does.
With no official new offer on the table, what would you do? She is very interested in at least two of the new schools.
