Maybe. I don't think it will make for much of a change. Most of the young people who will sign up in the early period will probably be the ones who were solid recruits anyhow. I bet the ones with multiple offers who aren't really sure will probably wait things out, just as they do today.
It might be a good thing for Tech by preventing something that many here have noticed: other schools using Tech recruiting as a signal to lead them to athletes. You see the same schools - Vandy, Puke, Northwestern, Wisconsin, Minnesota - suddenly cropping up late with players that Tech has been quietly recruiting. I know we do some of that ourselves, but, since so many of our recruits are under the radar, I think it's more a problem for us then for the usual suspects. If we can sign those athletes before the word gets out, it could lead to a little less suspense over at Tech HQ.
