I don’t know how I would find the data but I’d be curious how the overall numbers of high school recruits this YTD compares to most years at the end of April.
Is the portal and all the attention teams are paying to it slowing down recruiting of HS until the final portal closes?
I was just looking through different schools classes and commits and the numbers seem very low for this time of year. Bama with 6, Florida with 7, etc. Normally they fill early and get on with business simply rounding the class out at the end. I have to believe teams are putting some recruits on hold until they know who is coming and going through the portal.
At least it feels that way
