College Football Recruiting 2012: Top Recruits That Won't Commit Until NSD
Announcing on National Signing Day is getting bigger and bigger every February. You have some recruits who just walk in, sing their LOI's and go back to class while others wait until this day to choose their college.
I've got five recruits that I think will likely wait to NSD 2012 to announce. They could choose to commit before hand, but the first Wednesday in February is likely when they'll announce.
Let's see who they are.
Stefon Diggs, WR/RB/DB/RS
1 of 5Diggs lists a top 11 that has Auburn, Florida, Maryland, Miami, Cal and Virginia Tech in it, among others. He seems to be having fun with the process and has been pretty sly about naming a leader.
He's going to more than likely take his five allotted trips, and I think he's an early candidate to have a prop announcement on NSD.
Eddie Goldman, DT
2 of 5Florida State, Alabama, Cal, Auburn, Maryland, Clemson and Miami are the top seven schools for perhaps the nation's best DT prospect.
Almost everyone around him (and the consensus in the recruiting industry) makes it seem like his recruitment won't end until NSD.
Josh Garnett, OG/OT
3 of 5Josh Garnett is the top OG prospect in the country. Washington, Nebraska, Miami, Oregon, USC and Notre Dame have all been mentioned, among many more.
He wants to take all five of his trips to schools out of his home state of Washington, and a decision likely won't come until very late, say NSD late.
Kwon Alexander, OLB
4 of 5I initially thought Alexander may be planning to announce at an All-Star game, but it now appears that he will wait until NSD.
Alexander has a top five of Alabama, Auburn, Florida State, LSU and Oregon. He'll take his trips to each school and feel everyone out.
Don't expect him to know who he's feeling the most until signing day, however.
Dorial Green-Beckham, WR
5 of 5Green-Beckham isn't committing any time soon. He's really going to take this thing slow and get a feel for all of his final schools.
Couple that with the fact that his spotlight will get hotter when recruiting comes back into focus in January (i.e., the pressure will mount), and DGB will likely need more time to think. Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Alabama and Arkansas are all running.
There is a chance that he will wait until after signing day to make his commitment, similar to what last year's No. 1 overall recruit, Jadeveon Clowney, did.
