A reminder that player's are not obligated to sign during the early period, and can elect to wait until the traditional National Signing Day in February. An early signing period was added in 2017 to allow players to make their intentions official. Prior to that, players could only sign in February.
While it is called National Signing Day, players can sign at any time during the early signing period which runs from December 16th through December 19th. If a player does not sign by December 19th, they will have to wait until the late period which runs from February 3rd through April 1st.
The 2021 recruiting cycle was significantly impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. There was no in person evaluation period, on campus recruiting camps, nor unofficial or official visits with face to face contact.
