Official Early Signing Day Fax Thread

Looks like the only non signees are Briton Allen who flipped to USC (not sure why he committed here in the first place with no coach?), Larry Dowdy who wants to meet Geoff Collins first, and Joshua Black (unknown reason).
 
If we get the RB from Rome and a few more Ol/DL, I will be a happy camper

How do grad transfers work? Do they sign anything or just say they are committed then transfer over?
Grad transfers aren't actually graduate students transferring to Tech (you can't really transfer in grad school). It's someone who already has a bachelor's degree who enrolls at Tech for a second degree.

Student-athletes who have earned their bachelor’s degree also may participate in athletics as a graduate student at another Division I college provided they meet certain criteria (NCAA Bylaw 14.6.1) or obtain an NCAA waiver. This so-called “graduate transfer” rule was intended to assist academically high-achieving students in pursuing a degree of interest that may not be offered at their undergraduate college. But it has become controversial in football and men’s basketball as high-profile cases have emerged and as data have shown that many transfers in those two sports earn few graduate credits and leave school when their athletics eligibility expires.

Just how prevalent are graduate transfers? From 2011 to 2017, the number of them has nearly tripled in women’s sports and quadrupled in men’s sports. However, there were still only 534 graduate transfers identified in the 2017 Division I academic performance data out of nearly 110,000 Division I student-athletes, which equates to just under one-half of 1 percent.​
