Recruiting is a marathon, not a sprint. Many of the biggest fish of the class of 2019 were reeled in months before top prospects were first allowed to send in their national letters of intent, which officially bound them to their school of choice. To get a top quarterback or a five-star talent, coaching staffs often need to plant the seed of an offer years in advance. And when signing day finally arrives, undecided players can swing their toss-up decisions on the most subtle factors.
It's far too early to make hard-and-fast judgments on much of the 2019 recruiting cycle, with the traditional signing day far off in early February and weeks of nationwide player movement ahead before then.
