RECRUITING Signing day is not the same. It's a year commitment day.

I loved signing day in the past. The one in early Feb, where commitments were somewhat binding, at least more than a year. When you couldn't transfer in less that 365 from signing. So today's gains and losses don't swing the meter for me. These kids are free agents, whomever we may have lost today can be back here within a year. I hate what it is, I despise that an entire coaching staff can put in years of work to cultivate relationships and just be left at the alter because we were a few dollars short. I love the recruits that commit, and stay that way because they love the staff, the school and the culture. And I'd love to say that you can win championships with those players, but I can't. You need those elite guys, the guys who command the dollars, and it sucks. Just my very humble opinion.
