Countdown to Signing Day: Only Two Weeks Left!

UVa had a stretch of news – both good and bad – over the past few weeks, but things appear to be slowing down just a bit as we head into the final two weeks before Signing Day 2007. The staff has assembled a quality class so far, one that is rated #17 overall in the country by Rivals.com. There are a few remaining potentials, but the 2007 class has really taken shape.

Signing Day: February 7, 2007
Calendar: Recruiting is currently in the Contact period. November 26th marks the beginning of the Contact period. During this period, coaches can make in-home visits to recruits. Here is the definition per NCAA.org…

Contact period: November 26, 2006, through February 3, 2007.
Six in-person off-campus contacts per prospective student-athlete shall be permitted during this time period with not more than one permitted in any one calendar week (Sunday through Saturday) or partial calendar week.

Exceptions up until Signing Day: February 4th is a Quiet period. February 5-8 is a Dead period.
