Continue ReadingDAKOTAS– With National Signing Day just being less than 24 hours away, we figured it was time to weigh myself and Jake Evans predictions on where some of the undecided prospects might end up tomorrow. Most have given out there commitment via social media or said where they are signing tomorrow, but there are a handful that have kept their commitment a secret until February 2nd, which makes this article so much fun to write. As recruiting analysts, we try to read the trends we see on across social media and have gotten a good feel of where we could see these young men in their future from the handful of summer camps, and live games we attended last summer and fall.
We also are also well-aware what a beast football recruiting is, and some players want to keep their offers, interest, etc. totally confidential which we totally respect or do not post their offers, which is why you will see some kids we have their offer sheet posted and some we are taking a educated guess. We will still do our best to make a prediction nonetheless! Note: We will disclose that not every kid will sign on February 2nd, but this is where our gut is telling us at this point of time.
