To me, it is an effort to give recruited athletes time to consider their future and avoid athletes from making hasty decisions that they may later regret. It’s a worthy goal; not foolproof but perhaps the best that can be accomplished. The early signing period in December allows athletes who have decided to put an end to the recruiting process; all others can wait until February to make their decision.

There was a big snowstorm during CoEd week in 1969. Some classes were cancelled, but the party went on.

This might be fine-tuning things beyond reason, but for the OL, the weights are generally similar across the board, but for the DL, there is usually a pretty good difference between the interior DL players (who might be close to 300 pounds) and the defensive ends (who are usually closer to 250 pounds).

Watching Wyoming v. Texas Tech on CBS. Ayir Asante described as a speedy receiver and mentioned he came from Holy Cross.
Wyoming had a rough start but now trails by a TD midway through the second period.

It used to be that the Game Notes (which contain the two-deep for the upcoming game) used to be posted on the Monday before the game.
For the last year or two, posting of the Game Notes has been pushed back to later in the week (Wednesday or Thursday).
No Merrimack Game Notes posted as yet.

I believe, at this point, that we have 10 announced verbal commits and we have had 12 "signals" that commitments have been received -- meaning, therefore, that two verbal commits have not yet publicly announced their commitments.
If this is not correct in any way, I would appreciate being corrected. Thanks.

How many players had signed at this point last year? A quick check of the 2023 Commits thread indicates that HC had 5 verbal commits as of this time last year.

I still see many of our recruits in contact with or getting offers from Ivy schools.
My unscientific sense is that HC is being more aggressive in making offers to recruits who are FBS-level in talent, and that our recent success is making those recruits more willing to consider an HC offer. We will still lose many of those battles, but we are playing on the same field.

Since I am not on Twitter, I am now (as a result of recent changes by Twitter) unable to access tweets by the coaching staff or the recruits.
In keeping my list of offers, I have always included the players' twitter addresses. If I am to continue doing that, I need any postings of offers to include either a copy of the tweet by the player or the player's twitter address.
Thank you!

QB out of FL. Has offers from UMass, Fordham, UAB, FIU, Temple, Charleston Southern, App State, and a Miami offer for baseball (not sure if there's a football component to the offer). Maybe more offers but I got tired of dealing with Twitter being laggy this AM Offer #90.

A weird coincidence in my classmate's advice to the graduating class. I have a newspaper clipping on my kitchen table; my late wife cut it out from the Newark Star-Ledger on June 21, 1986. It is a column by Ann Landers, citing a list of Resolutions that a reader found in his late father's desk. I've kept it on my table both as a memory of her wisdom and as a means of dealing with things that life throws at you. One of the Resolutions is: "Resolve to listen more and talk less. No one ever learns anything by talking." :
