Continue ReadingWho committed to play at the next level month? Thus far to nearly end the month we have tracked 32 commitments and evenly split between North Dakota and South Dakota at 16 each. In total, we found nearly 60 recruiting actions with 32 of those being commitments and 27 of those being offers that have not been committed to yet from mostly the 2024 class, but it was also a big month of first Division I offers for our 2025 classes in both states. January is always one of the hottest months at the Division II and NAIA levels due to National Signing Day which hits in early February this year, which might I add is just one week from tomorrow. Some programs still have holes to fill and offers will still go out, but the volume after National Signing Day certainly goes down, except for a small amount of late signings at the Division II level. However, you will see NAIA and Division III programs in the Dakotas take a larger amount than Division II will after signing day.
Without further a do, let’s outline this month’s Dakota’s Recruiting Tracker. As always, please email Nate@PrepRedzone.com or DM @PrepRedzoneDAK on Twitter if we did miss anybody that received an offer or committed.
