I hate National Signing Day. The endless hype and hysteria.

I’m happy for the players, but I hate how recruiting services put stars on teenagers, not to mention how schools either “win” or “lose”, "climb" or "fall", based on an accumulated ranking.

Let’s call it what it is: glorified guessing.

The truth is, when high school kids fax in their letters of intent Wednesday morning, the first day of the early signing period, we have no idea how many of them will pan out.
