CU's MacIntyre Praises NCAA Go-Ahead For Early Signing Date

BOULDER — Colorado coach Mike MacIntyre lauded a host of changes approved Friday by the NCAA Division I Council, including a measure that would add a December signing day for football recruits.

The early signing date, which must still be approved by the Collegiate Commissioners Association at its June meeting, is part of a comprehensive package of changes that also includes an additional period for official visits, changes in rules concerning the hiring of people close to student-athletes, changes to the summer camp model and the approval of the addition of a 10th assistant coach.
