You think college football recruiting is nuts? Florida adds 11-year-old commit for softball

The National Signing Day scramble is always crazy, year after year. But think college football recruiting can’t be topped for sheer insanity? Think again.

Florida’s softball program added a new commit to a future class – just one day short of her 12th birthday.

Reminder: This would be a Class of 2024 commit.

It’s not even that unusual for the Gators, who added a pair of seventh-grade commits to their softball program last season. Now, with a sixth-grader, they’re going even further.

For now, though, the early signing period in college football isn’t going anywhere near that early.
