I wonder how often this happens?
Nick Saban at Alabama has talked about the practice of offering kids just to keep them on the hook and then requiring them to come to their camp for further evaluation.

Another use of this term is when kids "announce" they have an offer when in fact it is just interest by a school in an attempt to get other schools to bite. No school can talk about recruiting offers so there is really no way to know which offers are "real".
