The NCAA’s recruiting dead period came to an official end at midnight last night, giving way to the quiet period (and eventually the evaluation period in the middle of next month) while ushering in what could, and should, be an eventful few spring months for Oklahoma State and other programs as they go about filling the 2023 classes. The transition means coaches can once again have in-person contact with recruits and their families, and while that contact cannot happen on recruits’ campuses or inside of homes, it does allow for recruits to do the visiting.
