The signing period can signal hope for programs coming off a season of struggles. It can also show the start of the next emerging dynasty.
The three-day signing period lasts from Wednesday, Dec. 4 through Friday, Dec. 6, allowing high school recruits to sign earlier than ever in the NCAA calendar. Most recruits in recent years have signed during this three-day stretch, although National Signing Day is Feb. 5.
This year’s early signing period was moved up two weeks, so the incoming freshmen classes are taken care of before the transfer portal opens on Dec. 9. The early signing window started Dec. 20 last season, and Dec. 21 in 2022, which came at the same time as transfers were going through their own recruiting processes.
Many of college football’s future stars — and the NFL’s, for that matter — will likely sign on Wednesday and enroll early at their respective schools in the spring semester, allowing for extra time to prepare for the 2025 season.
