This is the time of year when recruiting really takes off in college football. A lot of work is accomplished on this front during the driest portion of the schedule.
Recruiting is a never-ending cycle, though, and a lot of schools have already enjoyed some success on the trail. Others, on the other hand, are hoping to add more verbal commitments to the 2023 class over the next several weeks.
