Top Recruits Mother Forges Signature

Ole' Miss Recruits Mother Forges Signature

In one of the weirder stories you will see from signing day, one of the top DB's in the nation, Floyd Raven, has his mother forge his signature and fax it in to the University of Mississippi without his knowledge.  The Ole' Miss AD had some fun with this on twitter and called it a "soft NLI".  Houston Nutt addressed the issue in his press conference, which is also odd because technically Raven did not sign a valid NLI with the Rebels; but this case appears so unique that it would probably need to be addressed by the University at some point.  As for Raven, earlier this evening he signed a valid NLI with Texas A&M and will be off to College Station next year.

It has been a long, but successful day, here at Nothern Arizona University.  I have been camped out by the fax machine for almost 13 hours now and will be heading home shortly.

Information on the NAU signing class can be found here at the Signing Day Central on the NAU Athletics official website.
