National Letter of Intent Week begins November 14th. For some signees, it will have been a year or more since they last committed. We're certain to see some previously unpublished signees and a few expected signings might not happen. Because of the length of time between the initial commit and the final signing, sometimes plans change. And, we know a number of recruits chose not to publicize their decisions until they were final.
Signees and coaches, please send your photos in from your signing parties and events so you can be featured in our special gallery of signees. Send them to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
