I have never had a D1 level signing. It must be interesting to have the coaches recruit these kids. the highest I have ever had is D2. however most years I have 10 or so kids play D 3 football annually.

We had three sign today:

We have three or four more that we'll be going D2 and 3 after visists the next few weeks. Great group of kids!

congrats coachsky . After reading the book, The Civil War (even though it was more about Army-Navy), I have nothing but the upmost respect for any young man who attends a military academy.

Congrats to all. We had one of our lineman sign with Boston College today. He's worked very hard for it -- great to see.

We had two also, both to Garden City CC. May have 2 more by the end of the week. It is great for the kids here in Kansas to have all these jucos. Maybe they don't go anywhere after, but if they want to give the next level a shot there are plenty of oppertunities.

We were excited about the 3 kids we had sign today. Really makes for a positive ending after working with these kids. Only negative is man you now have to replace them.....lol

We had 2 sign...LB to Notre Dame and QB to Liberty University. One other DT will likely go to junior college. One more could have gone somewhere but was out for 4 games due to collapsed lung; came back for playoff games, but was not the same.

Congrats all coaches who have helped these young men progress in football and their academic future. An exciting time I am sure. Looking forward to my first signing next year.

Congrats to all of those coaches who had kids signed. I HOPE the events were kept as classy as you guys seem on this board. The first Wed in February has become my LEAST favorite day in sports because of all of the showboating and upmanship that it has become.

We just bring in the kid, his parents, and the fb coaches; take a picture; shake hands; recall a few highlights; and go back to class.

The first Wed in February has become my LEAST favorite day in sports because of all of the showboating and upmanship that it has become. The actual signing is almost anticlimactic anymore. The real circus is when they commit especially during those dreadful segments during the all-star games.

Congrats to all you guys. Having someone go on is always fun for coaches as well.
For the first time in 13 years, we will have no one going on to play in college.
Interestingly, the last time we had no one go on we had the same record as we did this past year (9-1, so not like it was a bad season. We were carried by underclassmen and our two who have the ability do not have the grades).

We have one going D2 to Concordia-St. Paul. He is very excited and his family is proud as are we coaches. He should be a good OT for them. Congrats to all who have guys going to any level. The time and effort you put into those guys is allowing them to continue on. Cheers to all of you.

We've got 2 that are likely to end up at D.III's (I'm really hoping both choose my alma mater) and 1 that could maybe play at the local JC, but no further. Really hoping to have 2 sign somewhere next year and 2-3 (maybe 4 if one gets his head out of his pooper) the following year.
