National Signing Day National Signing Day most commonly refers to a day in February , usually on the first Wednesday of that month , which is the first day that a high school senior can sign a binding National Letter of Intent for college football with a school that is a member of the NCAA , the main governing body for college sports in the United States . Although all NCAA sports have at least one National Signing Day , and most have two , college football ' s version is by far the most widely followed by fans and sports media . History . National signing day is usually on the first Wednesday in February . Until 1981 , several college football conferences , including the Southeastern Conference ( SEC ) and Atlantic Coast Conference ( ACC ) , held conference signing days on the second Saturday in December to have recruits sign conference letters - of - intent . The College Football Association , led by several prominent college head football coaches , proposed a resolution to eliminate conference signing days during their 1980 convention , and have a singular signing day in their places , called a National Signing Day . In 1981 , the last year for conference signing days , recruits had to sign both conference and national letters - of - intent if their school was in the Big Eight or Southwest Conferences . The conference letters - of - intent restricted a recruit to signing with only one school in a conference , but was unrestricted to signing with a school outside of the conference . The national letters - of - intent restricted a recruit to signing with only one school in the NCAA . The NCAA ruled in January 1981 to abolish early signing days and have a National Signing Day on the third Wednesday in February . National Signing Day has since typically been on the first Wednesday in February . Player announcements . One such situation regarding players holding press conferences to announce their decisions involved offensive lineman Antonio Logan - El . Highly recruited out of high school , Logan - El initially verbally committed to the University of Maryland . On National Signing Day in 2006 , he held a nationally - televised press conference at the ESPN Zone in Baltimore . Among the attendees of the press conference was the Maryland Terps ' head coach Ralph Friedgen ' s wife . He took out a picture of himself with Penn State head coach Joe Paterno during the press conference and announced his decision to sign with Penn State .

A 24 - day players strike began on September 22 , canceling the club ’ s contest against Minnesota . Replacement players participated in games for the next three weeks . Much like Marv Levy five years earlier , Gansz ’ s grip on the club ’ s coaching reins was crippled by the labor unrest . Kansas City ’ s replacement squad consisted primarily of players cut in training camp . One of the few bright spots among this motley crew was running back Jitter Fields , who remained on the active roster following the strike . The Chiefs strike squad received an ominous welcome in Los Angeles when in the early morning hours of October 4 , the day prior to a contest against the Raiders , an earthquake rattled Southern California . The shaken Chiefs lost a 35 – 17 decision later that day . The low point of the year came the following week at Miami in the first regular season game played at what then was known as Joe Robbie Stadium . Chiefs replacement QB Matt Stevens was injured early in the contest , forcing into duty QB Alex Espinoza , a player who had never taken an NFL snap . The result was a 42 – 0 Dolphins victory , setting the stage for an 0 – 3 performance by Kansas City ’ s replacement unit , giving the Chiefs a 1 – 4 record before the club ’ s regular roster returned at San Diego on October 25 . Five straight losses followed , giving the Chiefs a team - record nine - game losing skid . For the only time in team history , five different players started games at quarterback for the club .
