National signing day is like no other day in sports. It is a weird day where kids in their late-teens take over our televisions and social media feeds, and it’s a day when grown men hang on the words of high school seniors as though they are awe-inspiring revelations. To many it is a day that decides the future of their favorite college football team; to others it is just a big waste of time.
While some networks dedicate their entire programming schedules to it and Twitter feeds are flooded with up-to-the-second updates on it, in the end national signing day doesn’t tell us much of anything.
