Well, no, not Sam.

As I said, Sam is on assignment today, but I am here.

I rewind trouble along with my guy, Ms. on the other side of the glass, and we are joined by Bryce Meritch for this edition of the recruiting roundup.

And Bryce, first of all, my friend, how are you?

I am doing good.

How are you doing?

Doing pretty well.

Families doing all right.

Everybody's rolling into getting ready for the turkey holiday in the Christmas season and you're on your household?

Yes, sir. Yes, sir. We started decorating. So it's going to be a fun time of year in your

house. There's no question about it. The first one's always super, super fun. All right. So,

Bryce, let's jump in. The first one is just kind of a generic question. I can't be the only one that kind of forgot that it slipped my mind that earlier this year,

they changed and moved the early signing period from the third Wednesday in December

to the first Wednesday in December.

We're less than three weeks away now until the first signing period opens.

That's actually really close.

Yeah, it's pretty super close. And I think you're going to see moves happen, obviously, quicker.

You're seeing guys make decisions sooner here. And that gives Michigan and other schools less

opportunity in press. You know, they have one more home game.

They're going to try to get as many guys up as possible.

And then from there, see what they can do.

So it sounded like yesterday in particular for one of the Michigan targets.
