Green simply means that you are the only school currently on the considering list. It does not indicate any level of commitment to sign and other schools could jump on the recruit. Most often you will get a chance to battle back but if another school makes a large enough push it can convince the recruit to sign with them. The best way to prevent this is to continue performing some recruiting actions even when a player is only considering your school and is "green" on the recruiting summary.
