If it was a business decision, I wouldn't sign on NSD if I was a recruit

Cool story bro

You better be a 5*

Schools will fill their rosters out. Unless you're a big time recruit, this is football suicide.

You would have to be elite level talent, which is not the case for the vast majority of the players. Otherwise you risk losing a spot and scholarship at the school you want to attend. If you are good enough to have the luxury of waiting then you shouldn't be concerned with competition. The only reason I could even see someone doing this is if they had a legitimate concern that the school they want to attend may be have significant staff changes ahead (I.e the head coach may bolt for the NFL or to another school). The idea may sound great, but there is a reason why very few wait until after NSD to sign their papers.

This didn't go as planned for the OP

Sounds selfish and inconsiderate

It's a career decision. They're going to college to get an education and play a sport to establish a career one way or the other. It's not a business. They can make "business decisions" when they find a career.

Dumb thread.

I wouldn't sign on NSD either. I'd do it before and claim my spot so I'm not settling for leftovers.

I would wait until the dust settles to see who signed where. There are a lot of unknowns until NSD is over

If this worked more people would do it, if more people did it then it would no longer work.

Nature has a way of establishing balance

At this point, you just want to sign your papers already and start the next chapter of your life. Coaches contacting you every day or sending gobs of letters everyday gets old.
