Summary

Dan Wetzel, Pete Thamel and SI’s Pat Forde recap an all-time classic national signing day. We had a flip of all flips as the Rivals #1 player in the country, Travis Hunter, spurned FSU for Jackson State and Deion Sanders. Welcome to the NIL era. How big of a commitment was Hunter’s for HBCUs in general? The guys go through the top-25 and break down who impressed them. We also address the massive amount of pearl-clutching from coaches around the country on the NIL age we live in. What will the NCAA do as far as enforcement?
