Keep it at 5. Allow kids to take officials from the day after signing day of their junior year up through the day before signing day of their senior year. The kid (and school) can decide when the kid will be on each of the 5 campuses he can officially visit. And the school(s) decide when to offer and whether that offer is committable before or after the early signing period.

If the NCAA made all the changes you propose, it would lead to the same shit that we have now going on earlier in the process. Change less and you'll see whether schools (and kids) are really serious about offers. A little difficulty for both sides clarifies.
