Arizona State football: Here's a list of Sun Devil high school recruits
The February signing day has become a lesser heralded event now that there is a December "early" signing period and colleges choose to have as many recruits sing then. That then allows them the chance to participate in spring drills in March. A majority of those signing in December are already on campus.
