NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- SEC commissioner Greg Sankey said Friday at the NCAA convention that he is not in support of the sweeping changes to the college football recruiting model proposed by the NCAA Division I Council and Football Oversight Committee.
Earlier this week, the oversight committee and Division I Council amended changes in NCAA Proposal 2016-16 that would have created early signing periods in late June and mid-December. The changes eliminated the June signing period and focused entirely on the mid-December date and allowed prospects to take visits paid for by the school starting on April 1 and continuing through the Sunday before the last Wednesday in June.
