Do We Need a Signing Day?

Beyond The Whistle with Odell McCants

The 2017 National Letter of Intent November early signing period recently concluded. This year, college football will have its first early signing period, from December 20th to the 22nd. Have you ever asked why do we have National Letter of Intent signing dates in college sports? What's so magical about these dates? What if we didn't have signing periods at all? What would that look like?

In this episode, I discuss these questions with my guest Michael Cross. Michael is a true thought leader on college athletic recruiting reform and best practices.
