All right, so kind of non-traditional signing days nowadays in the way that they're set up.

0:08.0

So this really is kind of just a recap. I have not spoke to you guys in a long time.

0:14.1

And at the end, open up the questions about things that have happened over the last couple months.

0:25.6

But as you look at the class, when you combine the high school class and portal class, which I think kind of the way you got to look at it now, almost if you were in the NFL

0:30.6

and you took the draft class and the free agency, if they were the same time a year,
