Strange, he clearly signed his LOI (in the picture here), I wonder if something went astray academically?
Article says he enrolled in classes for the winter semester too. He hasn't tweeted since December, so who knows what's going on.

It used to be that there were a number of surprises, but I guess these days most of the flips and new recruits are known in advance...
Anyway, still a fun day in a little over 12 hours.
Funny that they still use a fax machine. Today's kids may not even know what a fax machine is, let alone how to use one.
They do it for BobW, who appreciates the 70s, 80s, and 90s.
Some of our posters weren't alive in the 70s or 80s.

I wasn't alive until the late 80's, yet I use a fax machine basically every day for work. I too often wonder why we even use it. So much easier to e-mail a PDF file.

Hm, I still show known verbals for Cook, Johnson and Turner and an offensive lineman out of Colorado (unless he is PWO).

Whoa I forgot about Johnson. Another 3* DT. Maybe he's signing later. Ditto for Turner, who is retweeting a bunch of EMU commits. I'm less worried now.

Dear Friends,
I feel left out. I'm a poster from the forties. We had mimeograph machines and dial telephones.

Lets hope it doesn't turn out to be another Jesse Tate story. Tuttle's name is still on the roster.

Did you own a slide ruler? :)
I'd rather tell folks, I owned things like the first generation of home computers in the late 70s and early 80s. It sounds so much coooooooooooooler. :)
I'll never admit to owning a slide ruler, even if I did...

RE: Football Signing Day (a day early)
BTW, I'll get the quote, but USA Today had a story on recruiting and a proposal, as '79 indicated, is underway to get a 3-day signing period around mid-December to allow ANY recruits to sign then.
Coaches hate having to try to fight off other schools trying to poach their recruits for the months of Dec and Jan.
The idea being: Take your official visit by the 1st two weekends of Dec. and if the recruit is still on board, sign on the dotted line. Done. Fini. Done.

RE: Football Signing Day (a day early)
From Michael Niziolek on his live update page. "EMU is just waiting on one more fax, and they aren't expecting it until later today, so the coaching staff just went in for a meeting to recap the morning. Our coverage doesn't stop here though, I will have more later today on Nick Dillon, Pete Bergman and Kezio Snelling. I talked to all three this week.
Plus, I'm talking to coach Creighton in a little bit along with some assistants, so I will be posting their reactions to today's events as well. Keep following, and jump into the comments with any thoughts or questions."

Wonder what this means?
Did we lose some? Or are some signed but we don't know?
Is CC holding some scholarships for players who are still uncommitted as of today??? (there is still movement going on).
