I guess a coach from a big name program could signal intent to sign a player (whether truthful or not) in an attempt to get other schools to decide not to spend limited recruiting time on going after that player.  For kids who haven't even signed yet, this could screw around with their recruitment process.  I'm probably completely wrong and missing something obvious.
