Official Ragin Cajun Football Early Signing Day Thread for 2018

[CajunT]

A question from a dumb poster T, do they sign now, later? If they sign later, I'd imagine they won't be counted as part of this class, right?

Right, Blueshirts allow FBS programs to accumulate depth while not affecting their annual numbers. Like grayshirt recruits, blueshirts are counted toward the next season’s scholarship total. There is one distinct difference, however. Unlike grayshirts, a blueshirt is able to enroll and participate in team events in the fall. This allows programs to get the best of both worlds: FBS schools can delay a scholarship for the following year, allowing them to over-sign beyond the 25-scholarship limit, and get the use of a prospect immediately rather than waiting until the following spring.

[CajunT]

So T, let me see if I have this correct. 20 signees today with Spencer then 5 blue shirts from earlier. That'll give us the 25.

Correct.

They are not signing with this class, will enroll in the summer and count towards next years class.
