Less than a month after Clemson dethroned Alabama in the College Football Playoff, college football took to the spotlight on February 1^st with the latest crop of recruits for National Signing Day. High school prospects go to the extreme as they announce their school of choice. From hosting a small event at their school gym with a row of hats to making a Zombie Parody and even announcing from space (yes…this is true!), National Signing Day grabs the full attention of football fans and media everywhere.
