The best season in FAU history didn’t exactly lead to great results during the Early Signing Period

After showing the recruiting world for four-plus hours why recruits should #CometothefaU before the start of the Early Signing Period, Lane Kiffin and the FAU Owls would sign just five of their six verbal commits in the first ever Early Signing Period.

After signing multiple players from the JUCO ranks in the 2017 class, Lane Kiffin followed that same strategy again as three JUCO players signed with FAU over the three-day period.

Last season Kiffin went to East Mississippi Community College, the school famous for being featured on Last Chance U, to get the bulk of his JUCO players.
