Early Signing Period
The early period is 11/13 to 11/20. At this point, unless there is a surprise, it looks like Eric James will be our only signee.

Re: Early Signing Period
DU should have received the signed NLI by now for James. Recent video below.

Re: Early Signing Period
I think I would feel a lot better if I knew that we signed another solid player in addition to James. It's upsetting to me to think that we will have to wait until the Spring Signing period because we put so much hope into Ryan Luther. Spring is a daunting period for mid majors because the BCS schools swoop in at the end and pick up the higher level 3 star recruits and we end up settling on weaker players.

Re: Early Signing Period
According to this article uber "Players To Watch"
Eric James of Westerville Central, a 6-5 senior guard who averaged 16 points last season, is a tough matchup with his skill set. He has signed with Duquense
Not sure why no anouncement from DU.

Re: Early Signing Period
Wonder why Mr. Stephen J. Nesbitt hasn't had an article on recruiting since the signing period ended?

Can work the OTHER way -- players who might not be on our RADAR now could have really good senior seasons -- and get offers from schools like us -- Mike James was signed way at the end of the spring signing period

Feel a heck of a lot better seeing that James signed his papers. With no word after the signing period I was beginning to get a little worried. Looks like a solid player.
