A look at where the 2022 B1G recruiting rankings stand with National Signing Day approaching
In just a few days, the 2022 recruiting period will come to an end.
Wednesday, Feb. 2 marks National Signing Day, the second in a two-part recruiting period in college football. The Early Signing Period steals most of the show, with a good majority of recruits signing their Letter of Intent in mid-December.
Still, there are some high-level recruits available and every team is looking to add some last-minute commitments to the roster. Which B1G teams are in the best shape heading into National Signing Day?
