Even if signing periods went away, the overall recruiting calendar would still likely create windows of a sort, right? Coaches are still going to want some certainty heading into live periods and whatnot, so maybe theyâll still ask for yes/nos around them?
Exactly.
I read the final hearing on the house settlement will be next April 7 (also the day of the hoops national championship). So it seems likely that the bulk of the next portal season / late signing season plays out with 13 scholarships being the default.

Reading through, I think the signing periods stay in tact. Although I canât find it specifically mentioned. It just does away with the letter of intent and replaces it with a scholarship agreement thatâs non-binding for the player. Same rules still applyâŚonce a recruit is signed, other coaches canât contact.

I asked for Pumps for Christmas back in 4th grade and got the tennis version (no hyperlinks back then).
Lesson learned on hyper specificity has translated well when working with data engineers.
