Thanks to early signing date, Stanford class is still a work in progress
Stanford head coach David Shaw announced 10 national-letter-of-intent signings Wednesday, the first day of a new early signing period that he thinks is a bad idea for many football recruits. He said he expects the class to grow to about 16-19 by the time the regular signing period begins Feb. 7. Considering that Stanford has a much longer admissions process than other schools, it’s no wonder that the class is barely more than half done. As a result, it is ranked just 49th in the nation by 247Sports and 66th by Rivals.
